Answer:
x = 27°
Step-by-step 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°
