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
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation
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
