we can divide the composite shape into on quadrilateral and triangle as shown in the diagram. since the line that joins the two shape is parallel to the base AB, the angle DEC is 85°.The angle CEA is 180°- angle DEC = 180-85=95. Angle BCE is sum of angle CEA, ABC and EAB subtracted from360°= 360°-(95+95+85)=85°. Angle DCE is 120°- ECB=35°. So, angle CDE = 180°-(35°+85°)= 60°. For reference see the diagram.
Answer:
-28 = x
Step-by-step explanation
[5x + 20] + [4x - 8] = 180
9x + 12 = 180
- 12 -12
______________
9x = 168
18⅔ = x
m∠EBC = 5[18⅔] + 20 = 113⅓
93⅓
You will get a negative answer if you set them equal to each other, which is not allowed when you are talking about <em>length</em><em>.</em>
