The base angles of an isosceles trapezoid are equal; For EFGI to be a parallelogram, the measure of [tex]\angle HGI[/tex] is: 108 degrees

Given that:

[tex]\angle IEF = 36^o[/tex]

IEF and GHI are the base angles of the trapezoid.

So:

[tex]\angle GHI = \angle IEF = 36^o[/tex]

Also:

[tex]\triangle GHI[/tex] is an isosceles triangle.

This means that:

[tex]\angle GHI = \angle HIG = 36^o[/tex] --- base angles of an isosceles triangle

So:

[tex]\angle GHI + \angle HIG + \angle HGI = 180[/tex] --- sum of angles in a triangle

Substitute known values

[tex]36 + 36+ \angle HGI = 180[/tex]

[tex]72 + \angle HGI = 180[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]\angle HGI = 180-72[/tex]

[tex]\angle HGI = 108[/tex]
