So since the triangles are all similar, that means they all have congruent angles. So we can solve for any of the triangles' angles to get the answer.


So firstly, Angle ACB is 50° due to the vertical angles theorem.


Now with Triangle ABC, we can solve for the third angle using the triangle angle sum theorem.



30+50+B=180\\ 80+B=180\\ B=100


Aligning them accordingly, Angle FEG is 30°, Angle G is 50°, and Angle F is 100°
