Question

In the following diagram, parallelogram ABCD contains triangle CED. Line CE and line ED intersect at point E. The measures of ∠CEA and ∠CDE are shown. What is the measure of x?______ degrees *

Answer 1

∠x = 59°

Explanation:

∠ECD = 52° because they are alternate angles and will be equal

∠x = 180° - 52° - 69° = 59° because the sum of the interior angles of a triangle = 180°
