Problem 2

A triangle has one side that is 5 units long and an adjacent angle that measures \(25^\circ\). The two other angles in the triangle measure \(90^\circ\) and \(65^\circ\). Complete the two diagrams to create two different triangles with these measurements.

Two images, each a segment with side 5 and a dotted line rising at a 25 degree angle from the segment.

Problem 4

Segments \(CD\), \(AB\), and \(FG\) intersect at point \(E\). Angle \(FEC\) is a right angle. Identify any pairs of angles that are complementary.

Segment C D, segment A, B, segment F G intersect at point E. Clockwise, the points are C, F, B, D, G, A. Angle F E C is a right angle.
