Answer: The measure of ∠ABE is 41°.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given that ∠ABD = 82°.

We are to find the measure of ∠ABE.

From the figure, we note that

ABDC is a kite with diagonals AD and BC intersecting at the point E. The diagonal BC is the main diagonal of the kite.

We know that

the main diagonal of a kite bisects the pair of opposite angles.

That is, the diagonal BC bisects ∠ABD.

So, we have


m\angle ABE=(1)/(2)* m\angle ABD=(1)/(2)* 82^\circ=41^\circ.

Thus, the measure of ∠ABE is 41°.
