Answer:

D. 32 degrees

Explanation:

First you must know that the sum of angle in a triangle is 180. Hence in triangle CAG;

<C + <A+ <T = 180

Given

<C = 81 degrees

<A = 67 degrees

Substitute

Get <T first

81 + 67 + <T = 180

148 + <T = 180

<T = 180 - 148

<T = 32 degrees

Since Triangle DOG is similar to triangle CAT, then <T = <G = 32 degrees

Hence the measure of <G is 32 degrees
