Answer:

m∠GFH = 59°

Explanation:

Since m∠EFH is the combination of two angles m∠EFG and m∠HFG.

Mathematically, we can write it as:

m∠EFH = m∠EFG + m∠GFH

Substitute the known value:

127° = (8x - 4)° + (5x + 14)°

127 = 8x - 4 + 5x + 14

Combine like terms:

127 = 13x + 10

Subtract 10 on both sides:

127 - 10 = 13x + 10 - 10

117 = 13x

Divide both sides by 13.


(117)/(13)=(13x)/(13)

9 = x

x = 9

Now,

We can find the value of m∠GFH by substituting value of x.

m∠GFH = (5 × 9 + 14)° = (45+14)° = 59°

Therefore,

m∠GFH = 59°
