ABC is an equilateral triangle and BCDE is a square find measure of angle BEA
Answers
Answer
<BEA=15°
Solution
ABC is an equilateral triangle and BCDE is a square,So the sides of triangle and square are equal. From the figure attached with this answer, <ABC =60( triangle ABC is an equilateral triangle.)
<EBC is 90° (angle of a square)
Therefore <ABE = 60° + 90° =150°
The triangle and square have equal side , the AB = BE
Triangle ABE is an isosceles triangle. <BEA = <BAE =(180 -150)/2 = 15°
Therefore <BAE=15°

Answer:
The measure of ∠BEA = 15°
Step-by-step explanation:
Equilateral triangle:
A triangle whose all sides and all angles are equal is called an equilateral triangle.
Square:
A square is a 2-dimensional figure which has four sides and all the sides are equal.
Given ABC is an equilateral triangle and BCDE is a square.
Since ABC is an equilateral triangle then we can say AB = AC
From the figure we can say
Since ∠ABC = 60° and ∠EBC = 90°
∠ABE = ∠EBC+∠ABC = 90°+60° = 150°
Since the equilateral triangle has all sides equal and also the square has all equal sides.
So, we can say AB = AE
and also ∠BEA = ∠AEB
Now we will find
∠AEB = (180°-150°)/2 = 15°
Hence ∠BEA = 15°
