i know geometry is not that easy... but asking others do your homework is not right... sorry if i talk like a grandfather teaching his grandson a lesson... but how will you learn if you don't do ur own assignment?

I have to agree with haha13 here...

Maybe if anyone can help with how to solve this, and give a different example, then you can solve it yourself Smile

draw a parallel line xy

G to B from the xy line and G to C from the xy line are equal. so the 2 corners on the bottom will be equal. since corner 2 is 90 degres then the 2 other corners will be 90 in total (tringle has a total of 180 degres) so.. 90/2 (equal corners)=45 degrees

alternate interior angles are congruent, 4 = 3 and 5 = 1

so 45 degrees each and 90 in total.

that was it

or simpler..

since ray GB is perpendicular to ray GC then the have a corner of 90 degrees...

the straight line has 180 degrees..

so the other 2 are in total 90...

that was it...
