Answer:

60°

Explanation:

You want the measure of angle ADC in kite ABCD with A = 2a+30°, B = a-10°, C = a, and D = B.

Sum of angles

The sum of the angles of the kite is 360°, so we have ...

A +B +C +D = 360°

A +2B +C = 360°

(2a+30°) +2(a-10°) +a = 360°

Solution

5a +10° = 360° . . . . . . collect terms

5a = 350° . . . . . . . . subtract 10°

a = 70° . . . . . . . . divide by 5

Angle D is ...

D = a-10° = 70°- 10° = 60°

Angle ADC is 60°.
