Problem
As shown in the figure below, point 
lies on the opposite half-plane determined by line 
from point 
so that 
. Point 
lies on 
so that 
, and 
is a square. What is the degree measure of 
?
![[asy] usepackage("mathptmx"); size(6cm); pair A = (0,10); label("$A$", A, N); pair B = (0,0); label("$B$", B, S); pair C = (10,0); label("$C$", C, S); pair D = (10,10); label("$D$", D, SW); pair EE = (15,11.8); label("$E$", EE, N); pair F = (3,10); label("$F$", F, N); filldraw(D--arc(D,2.5,270,380)--cycle,lightgray); dot(A^^B^^C^^D^^EE^^F); draw(A--B--C--D--cycle); draw(D--EE--F--cycle); label("$110^\circ$", (15,9), SW); [/asy]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/1/3/4/134ae4df1e9e5a61162213df0f7339cc588865b9.png)
Solution
By angle subtraction, we have 
Note that 
is isosceles, so 
Finally, we get 
degrees.
