Refer to the figure where ∠EBS ≅ ∠FEB
- What is the measure of ∠AET? (1)
- What is the measure of ∠AEF? (2)
Correct Answer
(1) 52
(2) 142
Explanation
- ∠EBS ≅ ∠CBQ because they are vertical angles, then m(∠EBS) = 38o
- m(∠FEB) = 38o because ∠EBS ≅ ∠FEB, then their measures are equal
- Since m(∠FEB) + m(∠TEF) + m(∠AET) = 180o
- 38o + 90o + m(∠AET) = 180o
- Then m(∠AET) = 180o - 90o - 38o = 52o
- m(∠AEF) = m(∠AET) + m(∠TEF) = 52o + 90o = 142o
