(Angles are ABC, DGB, DEF.) What does updise down U mean? F is supposed to be in the farthest right and show work and explain. Hint: find the intersection, which is G

Well based on set theory usage an "upside down U" means intersection and since in your additional details you mention the hint is that G is the intersection so i'd have to say you are to find the intersection of 2 angles - this is usually shown (or described) as a "region" with the bounds shown or stated [the region can be empty in some problems soooo dont be confused if you end up with an "empty" intersection; also it may be unbounded in "some way" (going on forever in some 'direction')]

Now based on your 'representation' i cannot tell if G is just representing some region of space OR is a POINT with the other letters representing points [obviously the ones forming the angles must be ...]

Anyhow shade the "interior" of angle ABC using one color (or say sketching some dashed horizontal lines in its interior) and the "interior" of angle DEF using another color (or sketch some dashed vertical lines in its interior) - where your markings OVERLAP is the region of intersection ---> YOUR ANSWER :)

uh it looks like a 90 degree angle if there is a box on A then it is but there are no angles show so i'd have to guess that angle ABC is 60 degrees based on trig
