Answer:

Angle EFG = 82 degrees; Angle GFH = 98 degrees

Explanation:

Linear pairs are angles that are placed side by side. When you add them together, you get 180 degrees.

Show work:

3n + 22 + 4n + 18 = 180

7n + 40 = 180

7n = 140

n = 20

Plug in the variable:

Angle EFG:

3(20) + 22

60 + 22

Angle EFG = 82 degrees

Angle GFH

4(20) + 18

80 + 18

Angle GFH = 98

Check:

98+ 82 = 180 degrees

180 degrees was the total so the answer is correct.
