jhonyy9:

any idea ? than you know that angle T marked has 145° so the second part of angle T how many degree need having ?

jhonyy9:

|dw:1546903326522:dw|

HarleyQuinn112:

35?

jhonyy9:

yes - but do you know why 35 degree ?

jhonyy9:

how you ve got this 35 ?

HarleyQuinn112:

180-145=35

jhonyy9:

yes exactly

jhonyy9:

and now what may be the next step ?

HarleyQuinn112:

finding angle G?

jhonyy9:

ok. but how ?

jhonyy9:

what is the line TO for triangle GEM ?

jhonyy9:

given that point T is middle point of side GE and O is midle point of side GM

HarleyQuinn112:

TO is the median of GM?

jhonyy9:

just for GM ?

HarleyQuinn112:

and GE

jhonyy9:

|dw:1546904584268:dw|

jhonyy9:

what you see on the above posted triangle ?

jhonyy9:

the line EF unit the midle point of side AB and side AC yes ?

HarleyQuinn112:

BE and AE are congruent, AF and CF are congruent E is the midpoint of AB and F is the midpoint of AC, and EF is the median of the triangle

jhonyy9:

ok so from this result that the line EF how is with the 3rd side ?

jhonyy9:

please check on my above posted image

jhonyy9:

EF how is with BC ? is perpendicular on BC ?

HarleyQuinn112:

yes it is

jhonyy9:

|dw:1546905084337:dw| do you see the same angle between EF and BC ?

jhonyy9:

no please remember the median of a triangle is always parallel with the 3rd side

HarleyQuinn112:

oh okay

jhonyy9:

so now with these knowladge what you know from this image of your exercise ?

jhonyy9:

|dw:1546905389129:dw|

HarleyQuinn112:

g and e are congruent angles ?

HarleyQuinn112:

they are all 35?

jhonyy9:

g not equal e

jhonyy9:

you said above that the second part of angle T has 35 degree yes ?

jhonyy9:

and above we get that side OT is parallel with side EM what result from this ?

jhonyy9:

so from this result that angle E equal angle T what you get above right ?

jhonyy9:

how many is the sum of angle of a triangle ?

HarleyQuinn112:

180

jhonyy9:

yes so you know that E has 35 and M has 125 so from this result that G has how many ?

jhonyy9:

courage this is easy

HarleyQuinn112:

g has 55

jhonyy9:

why ? how you get this result ?

HarleyQuinn112:

180-125= 55

jhonyy9:

a triangle has 3 angles yes ?

jhonyy9:

180 is the sum of 3 angles

HarleyQuinn112:

125+35+20= 180

jhonyy9:

ok and so angle G how many degree has ?

HarleyQuinn112:

20

jhonyy9:

BRAVO !!!! do you understand it now sure ?

HarleyQuinn112:

yes i understand thank you😊

jhonyy9:

np was my pleasure - i m happy that i helped you any time and good luck bye bye
