Answer:

∠ HGL = 73°

Explanation:

KL is a midsegment of the triangle and is parallel to HG, then

∠ KLJ = ∠ HGL ( corresponding angles ), so

9x - 62 = 5x - 2 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

4x - 62 = - 2 ( add 62 to both sides )

4x = 60 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 15

Thus

∠ HGL = 5x - 2 = 5(15) - 2 = 75 - 2 = 73°
