Solution

1. Break Down the Problem

We need to determine the measure of angle g \angle g formed by the intersecting lines AOB and COD.

2. Relevant Concepts

  • When two lines intersect, they form two pairs of opposite (or vertical) angles.
  • The measure of vertical angles is always equal.
  • The sum of angles around a point is 360 360^\circ .

3. Analysis and Detail

Let:

  • AOB=x \angle AOB = x
  • COD=y \angle COD = y

Since these angles are formed by the intersection of lines, we know: x+y=180 x + y = 180^\circ (since they form linear pairs)

Also, if g \angle g is vertically opposite to one of the angles, then: g=x or y \angle g = x \text{ or } y

Assuming we are checking the given responses:

  • If g=223 \angle g = 223^\circ , this cannot be true as angles can't exceed 180 180^\circ in this context.
  • If g=133 \angle g = 133^\circ , it is plausible since COD \angle COD could be 47 47^\circ (making them linear pairs).
  • 43 43^\circ also makes sense if paired with angles summing to 180 180^\circ .

4. Verify and Summarize

Given the possible options and understanding of linear pairs:

  • If g=133 \angle g = 133^\circ , then the adjacent angle would be 47 47^\circ (since 180133=47 180^\circ - 133^\circ = 47^\circ ). This satisfies our equation.

The other responses for 223 223^\circ are incorrect, and while 43 43^\circ could be a valid calculation as a linear pair, it does not align neatly with vertical angles.

Final Answer

The measure of g \angle g is 133 133^\circ .
