72 minutes

We require their hourly rate of work

Maria cleans \frac{1}{2} the house in 1 hour

Sasha cleans \frac{1}{3} of the house in 1 hour

let x be the time it takes both to clean the house

\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{x}

multiply through by 6x

3x + 2x = 6

5x = 6 ⇒ x = \frac{6}{5}

Together they can clean the house in 72 minutes

The definition of the interior angles of a triangle states that interior angles of a triangle add up to 180º.

This means we can find the measure of <CED: 

<CED + <ECD + <CDE = 180º
<CED = 180º - <ECD - <CDE
<CED = 180º - 43º - 35º
<CED = 102º

By the definition of vertical angles states that a pair of vertical angles are congruent.

This means <CED = <AEB
If <CED = 102º 
Then <AEB = 102º

By definition of the interior angles of triangles:
<AEB + <EBA + <BAE = 180º

<AEB = 102º
<EBA = 18º

102º + 18º + <BAE(<A) = 180º

<BAE = 180º - 102º - 18º
<BAE = 60º

<BAE is another way to say <A

<span>m∠A  = 60º</span>
