Question

Find x. I need it ASAP

Answer 1

x = 27°

Explanation:

Because of the two parallel lines, we can conclude that

corner DAB = corner FDE = 2x

In ∆DAB

Corner DAB = 2x

Corner BDA = 2x (given)

Corner ABD = 72 (given)

The sum of three corners in any trianle, adds up to 180°.

So if one corner is 72° and the other two corners are the same, then the two corners together, must be 180-72 = 108°.

For each corner that is 108/2= 54

so corner BDA = 54° and also corner DAB = 54°.

Given was BDA = 2x and BDA = 54°

so 2x = 54°

then x = 27°
