Answer:

Measure of ∠FGE is 40.2°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the attachment.

Consider ΔFGE. Given that ∠FEG = 90° and ∠FGE is x°.

To find the value of ∠FGE use trigonometric ratios.

Use sine ratio to find the value of ∠FGE.

\sin \theta=\dfrac{opposite\:side}{hypotenuse\:side}

Rewriting it in terms of x° as follows,

\sin x=\dfrac{opposite\:side}{hypotenuse\:side}

Now find the opposite and hypotenuse side of the angle ∠FGE.

So opposite side of ∠FGE is FE and hypotenuse side of ∠FGE is FG.

Substituting the values,

\sin x=\dfrac{FE}{FG}

Given that length of FE is 12 inch and FG is 18.6 inch.

Substituting the value,

\sin x=\dfrac{12}{18.6}

To find the value of x, taking inverse sin.

x=\arcsin \left(\dfrac{12}{18.6}\right)

Calculating the value,

x=40.17

Rounding to nearest tenth the value of angle is 40.2

Therefore measure of ∠FGE is 40.2° .

Given triangle, ABC is congruent to triangle EDC find A
arlik [135]

Answer:

m<A = 30 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

m < C in triangle ABC = m < C in EDC so

x + 13 + 42 + x + 13 = 180

2x = 180 - 13 - 13 - 42

2x = 112

x = 56.

So m < C = 56+13 = 69.

m < B = m < D = 81

M < A = 180 - 69 - 81

= 180 - 150 = 30.
