Pearson Edexcel International GCSE Mathematics A 4MA1 · Paper 1HR (Higher) · Calculator · 3 marks

اقرأ هذا الحل مشروحاً بالعربي ←

The question, in short

Parallel lines ABC and DEF with BG = BE; angle DEG = 38° and angle GEB = 65°. Find angle ABG.

Summarised in our own words. Use the official paper for the exact wording and the diagram.

Solution · 3 marks

  1. 1BG = BE, so angle BGE = angle BEG = 65°
  2. 2Angle EBG = 180 − 2 × 65 = 50°
  3. 3Angle DEB = 38 + 65 = 103°
  4. 4Co-interior angles: ABE = 180 − 103 = 77°
  5. 5ABG = 77 − 50 = 27°
