To calculate the angle measures based on the information provided, we will use the properties of congruent triangles and the fact that the angles in a triangle sum up to 180 degrees.

Given Information Recap:

  • ΔABC is equilateral
  • \( DE \cong CE \cong EF \)
  • \( KO \cong FO \)
  • \( JN \cong JO \)
  • \( ∠BCD \cong ∠BDC \)
  • \( CGF \cong ∠CFG \)
  • \( ∠HKN \cong ∠HNK \)
  • \( ΔGCF \cong ΔGKF \cong ΔJHM \)
  • \( ΔKFH \cong ΔKLH \)

Question 1

Since ΔABC is equilateral:

  1. \( m∠ABC = 60° \)
  2. \( m∠BCA = 60° \)
  3. \( m∠CAB = 60° \)

Question 2

Since \( DE \cong CE \cong EF \), triangle EDC is an equilateral triangle: 4. \( m∠BCD = 60° \) 5. \( m∠BDC = 60° \) 6. \( m∠CBD = 60° \)

Question 3

Based on the same reasoning (equilateral triangles): 7. \( m∠EDC = 60° \) 8. \( m∠ECD = 60° \) 9. \( m∠CED = 60° \) 10. \( m∠ECF = 60° \) 11. \( m∠EFC = 60° \) 12. \( m∠CEF = 60° \)

Question 4

For triangles GCF and KGF, which are congruent (as per the given information): 13. \( m∠CGF = 60° \) 14. \( m∠CFG = 60° \) 15. \( m∠GCF = 60° \) 16. \( m∠KGF = 60° \) 17. \( m∠KFG = 60° \) 18. \( m∠GKF = 60° \)

Question 5

In triangles KFH and KLH which are congruent: 19. \( m∠FKH = 60° \) 20. \( m∠FHK = 60° \) 21. \( m∠KFH = 60° \) 22. \( m∠KHL = 60° \) 23. \( m∠HKL = 60° \) 24. \( m∠KLH = 60° \)

Question 6

In triangle JHM based on congruent sides: 25. \( m∠HJM = 60° \) 26. \( m∠HMJ = 60° \) 27. \( m∠JHM = 60° \) 28. \( m∠OFK = 60° \) 29. \( m∠OKF = 60° \) 30. \( m∠KOF = 60° \)

Question 7

In triangle HKN with \( ∠HKN \cong ∠HNK \): 31. \( m∠HKN = 60° \) 32. \( m∠HNK = 60° \) 33. \( m∠OKN = 60° \) 34. \( m∠JNO = 60° \) 35. \( m∠JON = 60° \) 36. \( m∠NJO = 60° \)

With all the mentioned angles deduced based on the properties of the triangles involved, you should be able to conclude that in this triangular arrangement, the angles maintain a structured equality completing the congruent properties. So each angle measures up to 60 degrees based on the congruences stated.
