If m<FHI=142, what are m<FHG and m<GHI

angle FHG = 42 degrees

angle GHI = 100 degrees

Explanation:

FHI is the largest angle. It is split into two pieces FHG and GHI which have measures of (3x+6) and (9x-8) degrees respectively.

Put another way, those two smaller angles (FHG and GHI) combine to form the larger angle (FHI)

This is the angle addition postulate.

(angle FHG) + (angle GHI) = angle FHI

(3x+6) + (9x-8) = 142

3x+6+9x-8 = 142

(3x+9x) + (6-8) = 142

12x - 2 = 142

12x-2+2 = 142+2 ... adding 2 to both sides

12x = 144

12x/12 = 144/12 dividing both sides by 12

x = 12

Use that x value to find the angles we're after

angle FHG = 3x+6 = 3*12+6 = 36+6 = 42

angle GHI = 9x-8 = 9*12-8 = 108-8 = 100

Note how

(angle FHG) + (angle GHI) = 42 + 100 = 142

which is the measure of angle FHI. This confirms the answers.
