Observe the figure clearly.

Statement 1:
m \angle CAD = (2x+15)^\circ, m \angle DAB = (3x+19)^\circ, m \angle CAB = 94^\circ

Reason 1: Given

Statement 2:
m \angle CAD + m \angle DAB = m \angle CAB

Reason 2: Angle addition postulate

Statement 3:
2x+15+3x+19 = 94

Reason 3: Substituting the values of the measures of the given angles.

Statement 4:
5x + 34 = 94

Reason 4: Addition of the like terms

Statement 5:
5x = 60

Reason 5: Subtraction property of equality

Statement 6:
x = 12

Reason 6: Division property of equality
