Answer:

  ∠1 = 50°

  ∠2 = ∠3 = 130°

Step-by-step explanation:

In an isosceles trapezoid, such as this one, the angles at either end of a base are congruent:

  ∠1 ≅ 50°

  ∠2 ≅ ∠3

The theorems applicable to transversals and parallel lines also apply to the sides joining the parallel bases. In particular, "consecutive interior angles are supplementary." That is, angles 1 and 2 are supplementary, for example.

  ∠2 = 180° -∠1 = 180° -50° = 130°

We already know angle 3 is congruent to this.

  ∠1 = 50°

  ∠2 = ∠3 = 130°

<em>Additional comment</em>

It can be easier to see the congruence of the base angles if you remove the length of the shorter base from both bases. This collapses the figure to an isosceles triangle and makes it obvious that the base angles are congruent.

Alternatively, you can drop an altitude to the longer base from each end of the shorter base. That will create two congruent right triangles at either end of the figure. Those will have congruent corresponding angles.

Answer:

x = 84

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of angles around a point = 360

Sum of given angles = 132+54+90 = 132+144 = 276

So, x must cover the angle remaining from 276 to form 360, which is

360-276 = 84degrees.

Hope this helps
