Let CB, GA extended meet at P
ReplyDeleteSince PC//AF and AE = EF, it follows that PB = BC = BA
Hence < PAC = 90 and < CAD = 90 - 65 = 25
Since ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid it is also concyclic
Hence < CAB = < CAD = 25
So < BAD = 50 = < HBC since BC//AD
Similarly < BCH = 50
Therefore < AHC = 180 - 50 - 50 = 80
