Answer: The measurement of ∠EFG is equal to 70°.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two interior angles who are always opposite to an exterior angle sums to that exterior angle. So we would start as the following:
(6x - 10) + 38 = 7x + 18
In order to find m∠EFG, we must first isolate x. In order to do that, we first add like terms together on both sides.
(6x - 10) + 38 = 7x + 18
6x + 28 = 7x + 18
We then substract 18 on both sides.
6x + 10 = 7x
We finally substract 6x from both sides in order to have the value of x.
x = 10
Now that we know the value of x, we substitute it in our the equation in order to find m∠EFG.
m∠EFG = 6x + 10
m∠EFG = 6(10) + 10
m∠EFG = 60 + 10
m∠EFG = 70
