The angle bisector of ∠ACD in rhombus ABCD makes a 64° angle with the diagonal BD. Find the measure of ∠BAD.
1 answer:
The complete question in the attached figure
we know that
the diagonals of a rhombus intersect to form right angles,
so
angle ACE is ----------> (90°-64°)-----------> 26°
ACE is the angle bisector of ACD, this means that ACD is ---------> 26 x 2 = 52°
The diagonals are angle bisectors to the opposite corners
so
ACD = ACB = 52°
and
BCD = 52 x 2 = 104°
For a rhombus, opposite angles are equivalent,
so
BAD = BCD = 104°
the answer is
angle BAD=104°

First you have to have the absolute value isolated so the 2 has to be divided. Then set up the two cases and solve.
