Math Problem Statement

I need the answer for G and H

Find the measure of the missing angles g and h.

Solution

To solve for gg and hh, we can use the concept of vertical angles and linear pairs.

Step 1: Use vertical angles

Vertical angles are congruent (equal). So:

  • hh is a vertical angle to the 112° angle, meaning: h=112h = 112^\circ

Step 2: Use linear pairs

Linear pairs of angles sum to 180°. Therefore:

  • gg and 112° form a linear pair, so: g+112=180g + 112^\circ = 180^\circ Solving for gg: g=180112=68g = 180^\circ - 112^\circ = 68^\circ

Final answers:

  • g=68g = 68^\circ
  • h=112h = 112^\circ

Let me know if you'd like more details or further clarification!

Here are 5 related questions to further practice:

  1. What is the measure of angle kk if m=82m = 82^\circ?
  2. What is the sum of angles in a straight line?
  3. How can you verify that two angles are vertical angles?
  4. What is the difference between complementary and supplementary angles?
  5. Can you solve for mm if the value of kk is given as 100°?

Tip: Always remember that vertical angles are equal and linear pairs add up to 180°.
