Based on the vertical angles theorem, the measure of angle is equal to 64°

In Mathematics and Euclidean Geometry, the linear pair theorem states that the measure of two angles would add up to 180° provided that they both intersect at a point or form a linear pair.

By applying the linear pair theorem to the figure, we can logically deduce the following supplementary angles:

m∠CIH + m∠GIH = 180°.

m∠GIH = 180° - 105

m∠GIH = 75°

Based on the vertical angles theorem, angle m∠BGD is congruent with m∠HGI;

m∠BGD ≅ m∠HGI

By applying angle sum property to triangle GHI, we have;

m∠GIH + m∠HGI + m∠GHI = 180°.

75 + 41 + m∠GHI = 180°.

m∠GHI = 180° - 116

m∠GHI = 64°

Based on the vertical angles theorem, angle m∠GHI is congruent with m∠AHF;

m∠GHI ≅ m∠AHF = 64°
