we know angled like this always have 180 degrees total between the 2. which means we can set up a little equation to solve for x. The equation is (3x+22)+(x-4)= 180. Initially we can take the solid numbers (22 and -4) and get rid of them by taking them to the 180. 180- 22 is 158. 158 + 4 is 162. now we have 3x + x = 162. we combine like terms. means we end up with 4x =162. We now divide by 4 which means we get 40.5. Now we know x is 40.5. Now dbc is just 40.5- 4 which is 37.5.
