Answer:

The third option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematical induction is a 2 step mathematical technique which is used to prove a statement, a formula or a theorem is true for every natural number.

Step 1 (Base step) - It proves that a statement is true for the initial value.

Step 2 (Inductive step) - It proves that if the statement is true for the nth iteration (or number n), then it is also true for (n + 1)th iteration (or number n + 1)

Angle D is equal to Angle B because AB and DE are parallel to each other.

AD is a straight line so the (2) 2x angles and 72 degrees need to equal 180.

Setting up the equation you have:

2x + 2x + 72 = 180

Simplify:

4x + 72 = 180

Subtract 72 from each side:

4x = 108

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 108 / 4

x = 27
