1. Problem Description

The problem states that the bunting flags are isosceles triangles. Given the angle EDF=66EDF = 66^{\circ}, we need to find the size of angle DFEDFE.

2. Solution Steps

Since the triangle DEFDEF is an isosceles triangle and the sides DFDF and EFEF are equal in length (as indicated by the markings on the sides), the angles opposite these sides are equal. Thus, DEF=EDF=66\angle DEF = \angle EDF = 66^{\circ}.
The sum of the angles in any triangle is 180180^{\circ}.
Therefore, EDF+DEF+DFE=180\angle EDF + \angle DEF + \angle DFE = 180^{\circ}.
Substituting the values we know, we get 66+66+DFE=18066^{\circ} + 66^{\circ} + \angle DFE = 180^{\circ}.
132+DFE=180132^{\circ} + \angle DFE = 180^{\circ}.
Subtracting 132132^{\circ} from both sides, we get DFE=180132\angle DFE = 180^{\circ} - 132^{\circ}.
DFE=48\angle DFE = 48^{\circ}.

3. Final Answer

The size of angle DFEDFE is 4848^{\circ}.
