In the figure given alongside, AB || CD, EF || BC, ∠BAC = 60º and ∠DHF = 50º. Find ∠GCH and ∠AGH.

Question:

In the figure given alongside, AB || CD, EF || BC, ∠BAC = 60º and ∠DHF = 50º. Find ∠GCH and ∠AGH. 

Solution:

In the given figure, AB || CD and AC is the transversal.

∴ ∠ACD = ∠BAC = 60º     (Pair of alternate angles)

Or ∠GCH = 60º

Now, ∠GHC = ∠DHF = 50º      (Vertically opposite angles)

In ∆GCH,

∠AGH = ∠GCH + ∠GHC       (Exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior opposite angles)

⇒ ∠AGH = 60º + 50º = 110º
