Problem
In the adjoining figure, CDE is an equilateral triangle and ABCD and DEFG are squares. The measure of 
is
![[asy] defaultpen(linewidth(0.7)+fontsize(10)); pair D=origin, C=D+dir(240), E=D+dir(300), F=E+dir(30), G=D+dir(30), A=D+dir(150), B=C+dir(150); draw(E--D--G--F--E--C--D--A--B--C); pair point=(0,0.5); label("$A$", A, dir(point--A)); label("$B$", B, dir(point--B)); label("$C$", C, dir(point--C)); label("$D$", D, dir(-15)); label("$E$", E, dir(point--E)); label("$F$", F, dir(point--F)); label("$G$", G, dir(point--G));[/asy]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/5/b/7/5b7c84bc2a28d8893ad588ced814f2d8e94bd60d.png)
