Thank you for the clarification. Since \( \alpha \) is the angle \( \angle EIA \), let's revisit the problem and determine \( \alpha \) correctly.

### Updated Analysis:
1. **\( E \) and \( F \) are parallel to \( H \) and \( I \)**: 
   - Since \( \alpha \) is \( \angle EIA \), this angle is formed between the diagonal \( EI \) and the line \( IA \) in the quadrilateral \( EIA \).

2. **Use Geometry and Trigonometry**:
   - We know \( \angle EGF = 90^\circ \) and the sides of the parallelogram. The information about the lengths of the sides will help us find the angle \( \alpha = \angle EIA \).

To find \( \alpha \), we can use the properties of the parallelogram and apply the law of cosines or use trigonometric relationships involving the given sides and angles. Let me calculate this for you.It seems that there was an issue with the calculation, likely due to the incorrect setup of the cosine law in this context. Specifically, the value inside the \(\cos^{-1}\) function might have fallen outside the valid range of \([-1, 1]\), which caused the error.

### Correct Approach:

To find \( \alpha \) (\(\angle EIA\)), let's use a different method. We can consider the properties of the trapezoid or the parallelogram directly by using the relationships between the sides and the angles:

1. **Recognize that \( EIA \) is a triangle** where \( EI \) is a diagonal and \( IA \) is a side.
2. **Trigonometric identities** involving the sides \( EI \), \( IA \), and \( EA \) can help us find the angle.

Let's recalculate using a more straightforward geometric relationship, focusing directly on the relationships between the parallel lines and using the given lengths to determine the angle \( \alpha \).It seems like I can’t do more advanced data analysis right now. Please try again later.
