Answer:

Angle AED: 40
Angle BEC: 105

Step-by-step explanation:
1) To find Angle AED, you have to do arc BC minus arc AD then divide by 2.
120 - 40 = 80.
80 / 2 = 40

2) To find Angle BEC, you have to do arc BA + CD then divide by 2. But that's only angle CED. You'll have to double the number because BEA is vertical; then minus 360.

62 + 88 = 150
150 / 2 = 75
75 times 2 = 150
360 - 150 = 210
210 / 2 = 105
- You'll divide 210 by 2 because of the vertical angles of AED and BEC.
