Answer:

72

Explanation:

We are told that line AC divides angle BAE in half or "bisects" it. We are also told that line AD divides angle CAE in half as well. Lastly we are giving the value of angle DAE which is 36.

Since line DA split angle CAE in half and we have half of the value, that means that the measure of angle CAE is 36 times 2 which is 72.

72 happens to be our answer for angle BAC because angle BAC is half of the largest angle BAE, which was divided in two by line AC.

Hope this helps!
