Answer:

m∠CAE = 65, m∠CBD = 65

Explanation:

Line CA is a transversal of lines AE and BD which are parallel, in this case corresponding angles are congruent. ∠CAE and ∠CBD are corresponding angles so you can make them equal to each other. x+40=3x-10 -> 2x=50 ->x=25. Now that we have x just plug it into the equations 25+40=65 which is m∠CBD. 3(25)-10=75-10=65 is m∠CAE

Answer:

I am not sure but for

CAE it is 65˚

CBD it is 65˚

Explanation:

x+40=3x-10

Move the 3x to the other side by subtracting by 3x on both sides

x-3x+40=3x-3x-10

The equation now looks like this:

-2x+40=-10

Move 40 to the other side by subtracting 40 both sides:

-2x+40-40=-10-40

-2x=-50

Divide by -2 on both sides:

-2x/-2=-50/-2

x=25

Since we found out what x is we can replace x in both CAE and CBD:

For CBD: 25+40 is 65

For CAE: 3(25)-10 is 65
