Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

in a trapezoid

each lower base angle is supplementary to the upper base angle on the same side, that is

∠ G + ∠ H = 180°

4x + 2 + 7x - 9 = 180

11x - 7 = 180 ( add 7 to both sides )

11x = 187 ( divide both sides by 11 )

x = 17

Then

∠ G = 4x + 2 = 4(17) + 2 = 68 + 2 = 70°

∠ H = 7x - 9 = 7(17) - 9 = 119 - 9 = 110°
