Question 19
Find the missing angles. As per the convention that we have been following, all line segments marked with a single '|' are equal to each other and those marked with a double '|' are equal to each other, etc.

Let us find the missing angles step-by-step using the given information and properties of triangles.
Step 1 — Angles in triangle CUR
We know that C is a corner of the rectangle. So, angle C is 90 degrees. The diagram shows that segment CU and segment CR have a single tick mark. This means CU = CR. Since two sides are equal, triangle CUR is an isosceles triangle. The angles opposite to the equal sides are also equal. So, ∠CUR = ∠CRU. The sum of angles in any triangle is 180 degrees. Let us call ∠CUR and ∠CRU 'x'.
So, ∠CUR = 45° and ∠CRU = 45°.

Step 2 — Angles in triangle AUP
Let P be the point where the line from A meets the line from U. The diagram shows an angle of 56 degrees at A, which is ∠UAP. Segment AU has a single tick mark. We are given that AU = UP. So, UP also has a single tick mark. Since AU = UP, triangle AUP is an isosceles triangle. The angles opposite to the equal sides are equal. So, ∠UPA = ∠UAP. Thus, ∠UPA = 56°. The sum of angles in triangle AUP is 180 degrees.

Step 3 — Angles related to points V, R, D, and N
Let N be the point where the line from R meets the line from V. The diagram shows an angle of 68 degrees at V, which is ∠RVN. Segment VR has a single tick mark. We are given that VR = VN. So, VN also has a single tick mark. In triangle RVN, since VR = VN, it is an isosceles triangle. The angles opposite to the equal sides are equal. So, ∠VNR = ∠VRN. The sum of angles in triangle RVN is 180 degrees. Let us call ∠VNR and ∠VRN 'a'.
So, ∠VNR = 56° and ∠VRN = 56°. Points R, V, D are on the straight line CD. So, ∠RVD is a straight angle, which is 180 degrees. ∠RVN and ∠DVN form a linear pair.
Segment VD has a single tick mark. We are given that VN = VD. So, VN also has a single tick mark. This means VN = VR = VD. All segments with a single tick mark are equal. In triangle VND, since VN = VD, it is an isosceles triangle. The angles opposite to the equal sides are equal. So, ∠VND = ∠VDN. The sum of angles in triangle VND is 180 degrees. Let us call ∠VND and ∠VDN 'c'.
So, ∠VND = 34° and ∠VDN = 34°.

Step 4 — Angles in triangle BOF
Let O be the central point where the 90-degree angle is marked. We are given that triangle BOF is an equilateral triangle. This means all its sides are equal: OB = OF = BF. The diagram shows BF has double tick marks. So, OB and OF also have double tick marks. In an equilateral triangle, all angles are equal to 60 degrees.

Step 5 — Angles around point B and L
B is a corner of the rectangle, so angle B is 90 degrees. We found ∠FBO = 60° in Step 4. ∠OBL is the remaining part of ∠B.
L is a point on AB. OL is perpendicular to AB (marked with a right angle symbol). So, ∠OLB = 90°. We are given that LO is parallel to BF. BO is a transversal line. When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, alternate interior angles are equal. So, ∠LOB = ∠FBO. Since ∠FBO = 60°, then ∠LOB = 60°.

Step 6 — Angles in triangle OPN
Let O be the central point. P and N are other points as defined in previous steps. We are given that ∠PON = 56° and ∠PNO = 90°. The sum of angles in triangle OPN is 180 degrees.

Step 7 — Angles on a straight line at P
We are given that ∠APK, ∠KPO, and ∠OPN are angles on a straight line. This means their sum is 180 degrees. The diagram shows ∠APK = 44°. We found ∠OPN = 34° in Step 6.

Step 8 — Angles in triangle KPO
Let O be the central point. P and K are other points. We are given that ∠POK = 30°. We found ∠KPO = 102° in Step 7. The sum of angles in triangle KPO is 180 degrees.

Step 9 — Angles in triangle KAP
Let A be the bottom-left corner. P and K are other points. The diagram shows ∠KAP = 34°. We are given that ∠KPA = 44°. The sum of angles in triangle KAP is 180 degrees.

Step 10 — Angles on a straight line at K
We are given that ∠AKP, ∠PKO, and ∠OKL are angles on a straight line. This means their sum is 180 degrees. We found ∠AKP = 102° in Step 9. We found ∠PKO = 48° in Step 8.

Step 11 — Angles in triangle KOL
Let O be the central point. K and L are other points. We found ∠OKL = 30° in Step 10. L is a right angle (∠OLK = 90°). The sum of angles in triangle KOL is 180 degrees.

Step 12 — Congruence of triangles OKL and OBL
We are given that triangle OKL is congruent to triangle OBL by SAS condition. Let's check the conditions:
- KL = LB: The diagram shows KL and LB both have single tick marks. So, they are equal.
- ∠OLK = ∠OLB = 90°: L is on AB, and OL is perpendicular to AB. So, both angles are 90 degrees.
- OL is common: OL is a side shared by both triangles. Since these three conditions are met, ΔOKL ≅ ΔOBL by SAS (Side-Angle-Side). This congruence confirms the angles we found: ∠OKL = ∠OBL = 30°. (Matches our calculations). ∠KOL = ∠BOL = 60°. (Matches our calculations).
