Answer:

7. ∠CBD = 100°

8. ∠CBD = ∠BCE = 100°; ∠CED = ∠BDE = 80°

Explanation:

7. We presume the angles at A are congruent, so that each is 180°/9 = 20°.

Then the congruent base angles of isosceles triangle ABC will be ...

∠B = ∠C = (180° -20°)/2 = 80°

The angle of interest, ∠CBD is the supplement of ∠ABC, so is ...

∠CBD = 180° -80°

∠CBD = 100°

__

8. In the isosceles trapezoid, base angles are congruent, and angles on the same end are supplementary:

∠CBD = ∠BCE = 100°

∠CED = ∠BDE = 80°
