BEG is a triangle formed by three diagonals of the cube.
All diagonals are equal in length so triangle would be equilateral
hence each angle is 60 degree.

I have incorrectly answered this questions twice so remember the answer :)

Edit reason: Corrected the typo.

according to me, the answer is 90 degrees. the line segment BE and EG lie in perpendicular planes.

I am opening this question again because I have a query.
Aren't diagonals of the square bisectors? If so each angle will be 45 and the ans should be 90?
Please explain...

B to E is diagonal on a face
so is BG and EG

Therefore, the 3 lengths are equal and they form an equilateral triangle, therefore the answer is 60
