The attached diagram is an interpretation of the question.
If there are other details, please post.

The distance AD is found by Pythagoras theorem, with
AD=sqrt(BC^2+(AB-DC)^2)=sqrt(21^2+2^2)=sqrt(441+4)=sqrt(445)
=21.095 (to the third decimal place)

Answer:

E = 50

D = 150

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the exterior angle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles

D + E = 200

D = 3E

Substituting that into the equation

3E + E = 200

Combing terms

4E = 200

Divide by 4

4E /4 = 200/4

E = 50

D = 3E

D = 3*50 = 150
