Answer:


\Rightarrow m\angle AEB=130^(\circ)

Explanation:

As ABCD is a rectangle. So each angle of the rectangle is 90° and
m\angle EAD=65^(\circ), so


m\angle EAB=90^(\circ)-65^(\circ)=25^(\circ)

The diagonals of the rectangle bisects each other. Hence,


\Rightarrow AE=BE

In a triangle if two sides are equal then the angles opposite them will be equal.

So in triangle AEB,


m\angle EBA=m\angle EAB=25^(\circ)

As the sum of the angles in a triangle adds up to 180°, so


\Rightarrow m\angle EBA+m\angle EAB+m\angle AEB=180^(\circ)


\Rightarrow m\angle AEB=180^(\circ)- m\angle EBA-m\angle EAB


\Rightarrow m\angle AEB=180^(\circ)-25^(\circ)-25^(\circ)=130^(\circ)
