Question

PLEASE HELP!!!! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AND LOTS OF POINTS!!! Please provide an explanation and answer only if you know the answer for sure. In the following diagram, BC is parallel to DE. What is the measure of angle х? **Angles are not necessarily drawn to scale.**

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

If the lines are parallel

< CBA = < DAB due to the fact that they are alternate interior angles

42 = DAB

We also know that

DAB + BAC + CAE = 180 since they form a straight line

Substituting the given values

42+ 109 + x = 180

Combine like terms

151 + x = 180

151+x-151 = 180-151

x = 29
