Answer: 108, 108, and 72 degrees

Explanation:

Angle A = 72

Angle B = Angle D

Angle C = 72 (Since it is congruent to Angle A)

Angle D = Angle B

Since Angle A and C are congruent, so are angles B and D. Now you would have to subtract 72 from 180.

180 - 72 = 108

Angle A = 72

Angle B = 108

Angle C = 72

Angle D = 108
