1.DEFG is a parallelogram                    1.Given
  H is where segment DF and EG intersect

2.@EDH+@HDG+@HGD+@FGH=180                    2.def of parallelogram-consecutive
                                               angles are supplementary

3.     @HDG+@HGD+@DHG=180                    3.def of a triangle

4.     @HDG+@HGD=180-@DHG                    4.subtraction post.

5.@EDH+  (180-DHG)+ FGH=180                  5.substitution post from statements
                                               #2,4

6.@EDH+@FGH=@DHG                             6.addition and subtraction post.
                                               subtracted 180. added @DHG
