Answer:
x = 22.5°
Explanation:
The interior angle at E is (180 -4x), the supplement of the exterior angle there, 4x. The sum of angles 2x and (180-4x) will be equal to 6x, because alternate interior angles at transversal BE are congruent:
2x +(180 -4x) = 6x
180 = 8x . . . . . . . add 2x and simplify
22.5 = x . . . . . . . divide by 8
The value of x is 22.5°.
