What is m∠DEF?
Enter your answer in the box.

There is a triangle DEF in which side DE is congruent to side EF and G is the midpoint of the side DF. Segment EG intersect the side DF at point G. The measure of angle DEG is (3y+4) degrees and the measure of angle FEG is (5y-10) degrees.

Answer:

m<DEF = 8y - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: DEG = [tex](3y +4)^{o}[/tex], and FEG = [tex](5y-10)^{o}[/tex].

The given triangle is an isosceles triangle with sides DE ≅ DF.

But,

m<DEF = DEG + FEG

            =  [tex](3y +4)^{o}[/tex] + [tex](5y-10)^{o}[/tex]

            = 3y + 4 + 5y - 10

            = 8y - 6

m<DEF = 8y - 6

Therefore, the measure of < DEF is 8y - 6.
