Answer:
∠BEC = 54°
Step-by-step explanation:
ED and EA are opposite rays, which means that they form a straight angle.
Straight angle = 180°
Which means that,
∠AEB + ∠BEC +∠DEC = ∠AED
This is the equation we are going to use,
We also know that ∠CED = 72°
We know that BE bisects ∠AEC
Know, we know that ∠AEB = (7x - 2)°
That means ∠BEC = (7x - 2)° - This is because ∠AEB = ∠BEC
=>(7x - 2)° + (7x - 2)° + 72° = 180°
=> (14x - 4)° + 72° = 180°
=> (14x - 4)° = 180° - 72°
=> (14x - 4)° = 108°
=> 14x = 108° + 4°
=> 14x = 112°
=> x = (112 / 14)°
=> x = 8°
So, know we can find ∠BEC
(7x - 2)°
=> (7 * 8 - 2)°
=> (56 - 2)°
=> 54°
