Answer:

Answer is 108

This question is incomplete without figure; find the figure in the attachment.

  Option (3) will be the correct option.    

    Given in the question,

  • m∠ABG = 12x
  • m∠HCF = 11x + 9
  • AE║DF and a line GH intersects the these parallel lines at B and C respectively.

Since, AE║DF and a line GH intersects the these parallel lines at B and C,

∠ABG ≅ ∠HCF  [Alternate exterior angles]

12x = 11x + 9

12x - 11x = 9

x = 9

By substituting the value of 'x' in the measure of the angle,

m∠HCF = 11x + 9

             = 11(9) + 9

             = 108°

     Therefore, Option (3) will be the correct option.
