You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If angle DEF and angle GHI are complementary, then the sum of their measures must be 90 degrees, so \"mDEF+%2B+mGHI+=+90\" (eq 1). You are also given that mGHI is eight times as large as mDEF, so you can say: \"mGHI=8%2AmDEF\" (eq 2).\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve for mDEF, and then put that value back into eq 2 to get mGHI. \n" ); document.write( "
