In the same diagram (PQ∥RSPQ \parallel RS, ∠QFG=105∘\angle QFG = 105^\circ, ∠FEG=50∘\angle FEG = 50^\circ), find the value of nn.

50°105°mnEFGPQRS
Worked solution (try it first)
  1. PQ∥RSPQ \parallel RS, so ∠QFG\angle QFG and ∠FGS\angle FGS are co-interior: ∠FGS=180∘−105∘\angle FGS = 180^\circ - 105^\circ
    =75∘= 75^\circ.
  2. nn is vertically opposite ∠FGS\angle FGS, so n=75∘n = 75^\circ, option C.
