So there are two triangles here: Smaller one (ADE) and bigger one (ABC) and they both are similar.

So you can use proportions here.

AB / AC = AD / AE

AB = AD + DB = 6 + 1 = 7
AC = AE + 3

AD = 6

So plug in these values:

AB / AC = AD / AE becomes
7 / (AE + 3) = 6 / AE

Now do the cross multiply:

7 AE = 6 (AE + 3)

Now solve for AE:

7AE = 6AE + 18

AE = 18

Find the

Answer:

x = 32 degrees

Angle ABC (left one): 153 degrees

Angle CBD (right one): 27 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the total angle will be 180 degrees, as it's a continuous straight line.

We can set the sum of our 2 angles equal to 180 degrees and solve for x.

(4x + 25) + (x - 5) = 180

4x + 25 + x - 5 = 180

4x + x + 25 - 5 = 180

5x + 20 = 180

5x = 160

x = 160/5 = 32

x = 32

Angle ABC:

4x + 25 = 4 * 32 + 25 = 128 + 25 = 153

153 degrees

Angle CBD:

x - 5 = 32 - 5 = 27

27 degrees

We can confirm this by adding the 2 angles together. We should get 180 degrees.

153 + 27 = 180

Checks out!
