Answer:

m∠FEG == 54°

Explanation:

you should know that m∠FEG is equal m∠EGH. this is because sides HE and FG are equal this also means opposite angles of this sides (m∠FEG and m∠EGH) are equal.

first find the measure of m∠EGH from triangle EHG.

m∠H + m∠HEG + m∠EGH= 180°

62° + 64° + m∠EGH = 180°

m∠EGH=180° - 126°

m∠EGH=54°

due to the fact that sides HE and FG are equal thus opposite angles of sides HE and FG are also equal.

m∠FEG = m∠EGH = 54°

m∠FEG =54°
