GK = 6V2 ( square root) It will be explained in the sketch.
ReplyDeleteIn Tr. GKH, < GKH > 90 so GH > GK and so GK < 6 but you say GK = 6.sqrt.2 > 6. Hence the answer is incorrect

DeleteSince < AFE = 120 and < MFE = 90, <AFM = 30.
ReplyDeleteSo <GFM = < GFA - < AFM = 45 - 30 =15 and < GFK = < NFM - < GFM = 45 - 15 = 30.
Hence Tr. GFK is 30-60-90 and so
GK = GF/2 = (6.sqrt.2)/2 which is the same as 6 / sqrt.2

Some interesting results
ReplyDelete1) Tr.s ABG, AFM, FHE, END, GHM, MHN are all congruent and isosceles 75-30-75
2) B,G,K are collinear
3) Tr.s FEN & BKF are right isosceles
Not for post, just take a look, if square ASTB is added, then P, M, S are interesting points. https://photos.app.goo.gl/8xKYnMSYxAXuR9Jw7
