Answer: angle DCH = 129 degrees

===================================================

Work Shown:

Angles DCH and PCF are congruent because they are vertical angles.

angle DCH = angle PCF

5h+94 = 7h+80

94-80 = 7h-5h

14 = 2h

2h = 14

h = 14/2

h = 7

angle DCH = 5h+94

angle DCH = 5*7+94

angle DCH = 35+94

angle DCH = 129 degrees

angle PCF = 7h+80

angle PCF = 7*7+80

angle PCF = 49+80

angle PCF = 129

We get the same result for both angles, which confirms the correct h value.
