#In the figure above, ΔABC ≅ΔADE, ∠ACB = 105, ∠CAD = 10, and ∠B = 50. Find the measure of ∠DEF.

# summer turret

Tri ade is congruent to abc, so angle E = ACB and angle d = angle b

#

First find angle ead

summer turret
#

@potent tundra how would you do that if we don't know what <CAB is?

potent tundra
#

From triangle aed

#

@summer turret

#

Angle sum property

summer turret
#

Im not too sure what you mean because all angles of triangle AED is unknown no?

potent tundra
#

Triangle ade is congruent to abc

summer turret
#

oh <B = <E

potent tundra
#

So all the angles are equal

summer turret
#

and <ACB = <AED = 105

potent tundra
potent tundra
summer turret
#

so <EAD = 180-105-50=25

potent tundra
#

Same for angle B and angle D

potent tundra
#

We have angle acb, find angle acf

summer turret
#

<ACF = 180-105=75

potent tundra
#

Yeah now find efa

summer turret
#

but angle AEF is not known how?

potent tundra
#

Ok find afc

summer turret
#

how would you do that?

potent tundra
#

Angle sum property

summer turret
#

oh right <CAD

#

so <ACF = 180-75-10 = 95

potent tundra
#

Yeah

#

Do you know abt vertically opp angles

summer turret
#

yes

#

so <EFD = 95

potent tundra
#

Yes so now find efd

potent tundra
#

We have angle D and efd

#

Now angle sum property

#

For def

violet oracle
#

Gawd daym

summer turret
#

<DEF = 180-95-50=35

#

alr thanks

potent tundra
#

Yep

summer turret
#

can you help me with another one?

potent tundra
#

If I can, sure

summer turret
#

I will add you

potent tundra
#

Just send it here
