In the following figure, FD∥BC∥AE and AC∥ED. Find the value of x.
Answer: : In ΔABC, ∠ABC+∠BCA+∠CAB=180∘ [Angle sum property of triangle] ⇒64∘+∠BCA+52∘=180∘ ⇒∠BCA=180∘−64∘−52∘=64∘ ∠FAE=∠BCA [∵ Alternate angles; AE∥BC, AC is the transversal] ⇒∠FAE=64∘ Now, ∠FAE+x=180∘ [Adjacent angles in a parallelogram are supplementary] ⇒x=180∘−64∘∴x=116∘
