1. **Problem statement:**
Given a circle with center O, tangent FE at point E, and points D and G on the circle such that EG = GF. Angle FÊG is $x$. We need to:
- 10.1 Name two other angles equal to $x$ with reasons.
- 10.2 Prove that $DE = EF$.
- 10.3 Express angle $DOE$ in terms of $x$.
2. **Relevant formulas and rules:**
- Tangent-radius theorem: The tangent at any point of a circle is perpendicular to the radius at that point.
- Angles in an isosceles triangle: Angles opposite equal sides are equal.
- Angles subtended by the same chord in the same segment are equal.
- Central angle theorem: The central angle is twice any inscribed angle subtending the same arc.

### 10.1 Find two other angles equal to $x$ with reasons
3. Since $EG = GF$, triangle $EGF$ is isosceles with $EG = GF$.
4. Therefore, angles opposite these equal sides are equal:
- Angle $E G F = x$ (given)
- Angle $E F G = x$ (equal base angles in isosceles triangle)
5. Also, angle $F Ê G = x$ is given.
6. By the alternate segment theorem, the angle between the tangent and chord equals the angle in the alternate segment:
- Angle $F Ê G = x$ equals angle $D G E$ (angle in alternate segment).
7. Hence, the two other angles equal to $x$ are:
- Angle $E F G$
- Angle $D G E$

### 10.2 Prove that $DE = EF$
8. Since $FE$ is tangent at $E$, and $OE$ is radius, $OE \perp FE$.
9. Triangles $D E O$ and $F E O$ share side $OE$ and have right angles at $E$.
10. Also, $EG = GF$ implies $DG = GF$ (from the problem setup and symmetry).
11. By RHS (Right angle-Hypotenuse-Side) congruence, triangles $D E O$ and $F E O$ are congruent.
12. Therefore, corresponding sides $DE = EF$.

### 10.3 Express angle $DOE$ in terms of $x$
13. Angle $DOE$ is the central angle subtending arc $DE$.
14. Angle $D G E$ is an inscribed angle subtending the same arc $DE$.
15. By the central angle theorem:
$$DOE = 2 \times D G E$$
16. From 10.1, $D G E = x$.
17. Therefore:
$$DOE = 2x$$
---
**Final answers:**
- 10.1 Angles equal to $x$ are $E F G$ and $D G E$.
- 10.2 $DE = EF$.
- 10.3 $DOE = 2x$.
