Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in ΔABD is ...

2a + b + d = 180

The sum of angles in ΔAHG is ...

a + h + 90 = 180

Solving this second equation for a, we have ...

a = 180 -90 -h = 90 -h

Substituting this into the first equation, we have ...

2(90 -h) +b +d = 180

180 -2h +b +d = 180 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

b + d = 2h . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 2h-180

h = (1/2)(b+d) . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
