Answer:
x = 40
m<AFE = 140
m<BFD = 140
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Finding X
As one can see, AD is a straight line (hence the three angles that add up to is equal 180 degrees). It is given that m<CFD is 90 degrees (signified by the box).
<u>Given;</u>
AD - straight line
m<AFB + m<BFC + m<CFD = 180
( m<AFB, m<BFC, m<CFD form line AD, the degree measures in al ine equal 180, hence m<AFB + m<BFC + m<CFD = 180)
m<BFC = 50
m<CFD = 90 (signified by box around it)
m<AFB + m<BFC + m<CFD = 180 parts whole postulate
x + 50 + 90 = 180 substitution
x + 140 = 180 algebra
x = 40
2. Finding m<AFE and m<BFD
When two straight lines intersect, four angles are formed. The angles that are opposite to each other are called vertical angles, and vertical angles are congruent in other words, have the same measure.
<u>Given;</u>
m<BFD = m< AFE
m<BFC + m<CFD = m<BFD
m<BFC = 50
m<CFD = 90
m<BFC + m<CFD = m<BFD Given (parts whole postulate)
50 + 90 = m<BFD substitution
140 = m<BFD algebra
140 = m<BFD = m<AFE substition
