The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

∠EFG and ∠GFH are a linear pair, m∠EFG = 3n+ 21, and m∠GFH = 2n + 34. What are m∠EFG and m∠GFH?

Solution:

Two angles are said to form a linear pair if they share a base. Linear pair angles are adjacent angles formed along a line as a result of the intersection of two lines. Linear pairs are always supplementary (that is they add up to 180°).

m∠EFG = 3n + 21, m∠GFH = 2n + 34. Both angles form linear pairs, hence:

m∠EFG + m∠GFH = 180°

3n + 21 + (2n + 34) = 180

3n + 2n + 21 + 34 = 180

5n + 55 = 180

5n = 125

n = 25

Therefore, m∠EFG = 3(25) + 21 = 96°, m∠GFH = 2(25) + 34 = 84°
