1. Find the interior angle EAB.

Angles at a point sum to 360∘360^\circ.
Interior ∠EAB=360∘−252∘=108∘\angle\text{EAB} = 360^\circ - 252^\circ = 108^\circ

2. Find angle EAD.

Since ABCD is a square, ∠DAB=90∘\angle\text{DAB} = 90^\circ.
∠EAD=∠EAB−∠DAB=108∘−90∘=18∘\angle\text{EAD} = \angle\text{EAB} - \angle\text{DAB} = 108^\circ - 90^\circ = 18^\circ

3. Find angle DAF.

Since EAFG is a rectangle, ∠EAF=90∘\angle\text{EAF} = 90^\circ.
∠DAF=∠EAF−∠EAD=90∘−18∘=72∘\angle\text{DAF} = \angle\text{EAF} - \angle\text{EAD} = 90^\circ - 18^\circ = 72^\circ

Answer

72∘72^\circ (option 2)
