For a better understanding of the solution given here please find the attached file which has the diagram of the kite EFGH.

As can be seen from the diagram,
\angle FEH=\angle FGH=102^(\circ)

Also, it is given that
\angle EHG=68^(\circ)

We are required to find the
\angle EFG.

To proceed we know that a kite is a quadrilateral and in a quadrilateral the sum of the interior angles is 360 degrees. Thus, we will get:


m\angle FEH+m\angle EHG+m\angle FGH+m\angle EFG=360^(\circ)

Plugging in the given values we get:


102^(\circ)+68^(\circ)+102^(\circ)+m\angle EFG=360^(\circ)

This will give:


m\angle EFG=88^(\circ)

Therefore, Option B is the correct option.

Assuming angle F is 68°, angle H will be
.. 360° -2*102° -68° = 88° . . . . . . . . selection B
