Answer:


\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{m ∠EFG = 96°}}}}}


\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{m∠GFH = 84°}}}}}

Explanation:

Sum of linear pair add to 180°

Let's create an equation and solve for n


\sf{m∠EFG + m∠GFH = 180 °\: }


\longrightarrow{ \sf{5n + 16 + 4n + 20}} = 180°


\longrightarrow{ \sf{9n + 36 = 180°}}


\longrightarrow{ \sf{9n = 180° - 36}}


\longrightarrow{ \sf{9n = 144}}


\longrightarrow{ \sf{ (9n)/(9) = (144)/(9)}}


\longrightarrow{ \sf{n = 16}}

Replacing / Substituting the value of n in 5n + 16 in order to find the value of m EFG


\sf{m ∠EFG = 5n + 16 = 5 * 16 + 16 = 96}

Replacing / Substituting the value of n in 4n + 20 in order to find the value of mGFH


\sf{m ∠GFH = 4n + 20 = 4 * 16 + 20 = 84}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
