Question on: WAEC Mathematics - 2010

In the diagram, GI is a tangent to the circle at H. If EF//GI, calculate the size of < EHF

A
126o
B
72o
C
64cmo
D
32cmo
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: B

F = 54o (Alternate triangle angles)

< GHE = F = 54o(Angle between a chord and a tangent = angles in the alternate segment)

Now, < GHE + < EHF + < IHF = 180o(Angles on a straight line)

54o + < EHF + 54o = 180o

< EHF = 180o - 108o

= 72o
