as angle anm= angle amn

oh
cd would be parallel to a right
since it is a regular polygon
wait, let me check
Because NMDC is a square with CD parallel to MN and ABCDE is regular, meaning A is at the midpoint of CD, which is also the midpoint of MN.
In any regular n-gon where n is odd, the bisector of any angle is always the perpendicular bisector of the opposite side.
And vice versa.
...there's no such thing as parallel to a point.

I mean, if you like, but considering you came here asking about it, I'd assumed you'd already tried and failed.
it is isosceles
i believe techie has already suggested dropping a perpendicular from A to CD
this bisects CD; it will also bisect MN
unnecessary
meaning that 2y + 180 - 2x = 108
why
yes
fine
