Answer:


\huge \orange{m\widehat {FGH} =238\degree}

Explanation:

  • Quadrilateral AFGH is inscribed in a circle.
  • So, it is a cyclic quadrilateral.
  • Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.


\therefore m\angle FGH + m\angle FAH = 180\degree


\therefore (21x-2)\degree + (38x +5)\degree = 180\degree


\therefore (21x-2+38x +5)\degree = 180\degree


\therefore 59x+3= 180


\therefore 59x= 180-3


\therefore 59x= 177


\therefore x= (177)/(59)


\therefore x=3

Now, by inscribed angle theorem:


m\angle FAH = (1)/(2) m\widehat {FGH}


(38x +5)\degree = (1)/(2) m\widehat {FGH}


2(38* 3+5)\degree = m\widehat {FGH}


2(119)\degree = m\widehat {FGH}


238\degree = m\widehat {FGH}


\huge \purple {\boxed {m\widehat {FGH} =238\degree}}
