4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3% = 3/100

So we can eliminate the first answer.

The proportions have to match each other so the number nine should be above and thus the x has only the option of being under it.

As a result, we eliminate the third answer and remain with one reasonable answer

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.
