Worked solution
15(a)
1. Find the angle $\angle FGM$ using the property of the square's diagonal.
Since is a square and is its diagonal, it bisects the right angle at .
Since lies on , .
2. Use the isosceles triangle $FMG$ to find $\angle FMG$.
Given , is an isosceles triangle.
15(b)
1. Find $\angle FEL$ using the right-angled triangle $EFL$
Since is a square and is a straight line, .
In , .
Given , we have:
2. Find $\angle GEL$ by subtracting the diagonal angle
is the diagonal of square , so .
15(c)
1. Find $\angle LEJ$ using the right angle of the square.
Since is a square and are collinear, .
From earlier parts, .
.
2. Use the isosceles triangle property to find $\angle KJE$.
In , we are given , which means it is an isosceles triangle.
Therefore, the base angles are equal: .
Since lies on , .
Thus, .
