In the figure AB is parallel to CD. EG and FG are bisectors of angle BEF and angle DFE respectively. The measure of angle FGE is:
a) half of a right angle
b) 60 degrees
c) half of a straight angle
d) 180 degrees
Please help me solve this problem, it's really urgent ❤️
Answers
Given :
- AB // CD
- EG , FG are bisectors of angle BEF , DEF
- Measure of angle FGE = ?
Line FR is transversal of lines
- AB and CD
So angle ,
- BEF = DEF = 90°
So angle ,
- GEF = GFE = 45°
Angles of straight line = 180°
- half of 180°
= 90°
- Angle G = 90°
So,answer = Option :
d) Half of a straight line
Given: AB is parallel to CD. EG and FG are bisectors of angle BEF and angle DFE
To find: The measure of angle FGE that is angle G.
Solution:
As visible in the figure, the straight line FR is the transversal of lines
AB and CD.
As these two lines, AB and CD are parallel to each other,
Therefore, BEF=DEF= 90 degrees.
Now, GEF=GFE because of FG AND EG being the angle bisectors.
In triangle GEF
We will apply the property of the sum of all the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.
Since DFE and BEF are right-angled triangles, Angle GEF and angle GFE will each be 45 degrees.
So, GEF+GFE+Angle G= 180 degrees
45+45+G=180 degrees.
G=180-90
G=90
So G is half of a straight angle which is 180/2= 90 degrees.
The measure of angle FGE is 90 degrees which is C). half of a straight angle.
