The measure of angle E is 75°.

Solution:

Given data:

∠E = 5x, ∠F = 7x – 13 and ∠R = –2 + 6x

A quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is called cyclic quadrilateral.

∠R and ∠G are opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral.

In cyclic quadrilateral, opposite angles are supplementary.

⇒ m∠R + m∠F = 180

⇒ –2 + 6x + 7x – 13 = 180

⇒ 13x – 15 = 180

Add 15 from both sides of the equation, we get

⇒ 13x = 195

Divide by 13 from both sides of the equation, we get

⇒ x = 15

To find the measure of angle E:

m∠E = 5x

m∠E = 5(15)

m∠E = 75

The measure of angle E is 75°.
