Which statements are true for the image below? Check all that apply.

Question illustration
A
Measure of angle B = measure of angle C + 33 degrees
Option A
B
Measure of angle B = 180 degrees minus (measure of angle D + 128 degrees)
Option B
C
Measure of angle B = 360 degrees minus (measure of angle D + 128 degrees)
Option C
D
Measure of angle D + measure of angle B + 128 degrees = 360 degrees
Option D
E
180 degrees = measure of angle D + measure of angle B + 128 degrees = 360 degrees
Option E
F
Measure of angle D = 360 degrees minus 33 degrees
Option F
G
Measure of angle D = 180 degrees minus 33 degrees
Option G
H
Measure of angle B = measure of angle D + 128 degrees
Option H
