Answer: <1 = 26°

Step-by-step explanation:

given that:

• <ABD = 66°

• <2 = 14° + <1 (since ''more than' means we add)

• Find <1

Since it is obvious that <ABD is a sum of <1 and <2:

⇒ <ABD = <1 + <2

now we know that <2 is 14° more than <1 and that <ABD = 66°

⇒ 66° = <1 + (14° + <1)

⇒ 66° = <1 + 14° + <1

⇒ <1 = (66° - 14°) ÷ 2

⇒ <1 = 26° ...Answer...

hope that helps...
