Find the measure of ∠AED.
A) 25°
B) 65°
C) 115°
D) 155°
Answer:
Option D. 155°
Step-by-step explanation:
Two lines AC and BD are intersecting each other at point E.
Since ∠DEC = ∠AEB [ opposite angles ]
5x = 3x = 10
2x = 10
x = 5 ⇒ ∠DEC = ( 3×5 ) + 10 = 15 + 10 = 25°
Now we have to find ∠AED
Since ∠AED + ∠DEC = 180° [Supplementary angles]
∠AED + 25 = 180
∠AED = 180 - 25
∠AED = 155°
Option D. is the answer.
