Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
ABC is an isosceles triangle with BA = BC.
That makes angles A and C congruent.
ABD is an isosceles triangle with AB = AD.
That makes angles ABD and ADB congruent.
Since m<ABD = 72 deg, then m<ADB = 72 deg.
Angles ADB and CDB are a linear pair which makes them supplementary.
m<ADB + m<BDC = 180 deg
72 deg + m<BDC = 180 deg
m<CDB = 108 deg
In triangle ABD, the sum of the measures of the angles is 180 deg.
m<A + m<ADB + m<ABD = 180 deg
m<A + 72 deg + 72 deg = 180 deg
m<A = 36 deg
m<C = 36 deg
In triangle BCD, the sum of the measures of the angles is 180 deg.
m<CBD + m<C + m<BDC = 180 deg
m<CBD + 36 deg + 108 deg = 180 deg
m<CBD = 36 deg
In triangle CBD, angles C and CBD measure 36 deg making them congruent.
Opposite sides DB and DC are congruent making triangle BCD isosceles.
