ReplyDeleteFIE = 180°- 44 = 136° => IFE = IEF = 44:2 = 22°
=> AFE = 90° + 22° = 112°
A/2 + B/2 = 136:2 =68°
=>
AFE + AIG = 112°+ 68° = 180° => AIGF cyclic =>
x = IFE ( have same arc IG )
x = 22°

mBIA=mEIF/2=mEFF=mEFA
ReplyDeleteAIGF, IECF concyclic
x=mGFI=mECI=44/2=22
A + B = 136 and so A/2 + B/2 = 68.
ReplyDeleteNow IECF being cyclic < IEF = 22 and considering the angles of Tr. BEG, < BGE = 180 - B/2 - 90 - 22 = A/2. Hence AIGF is cyclic and so x = < IFG = 22

Even if the value of C is not given we can similarly show that AG is perpendicular to BG
