Given:
AB = AD = BD = DC
To find:
The value of x°
Solution:
The value of x° is 30°.
We can find the angle by following the given steps-
We know that in the given triangle ABD, AB=AD=BD.
Since all the sides are equal, triangle ABD is an equilateral triangle.
So, all the angles of the triangle ABD=60°.
Angle ABD=Angle ADB=Angle DAB=60°.
Now, we know that the angle ADB and the angle BDC form a linear pair as AC is a straight line.
So, angle ADB+angle BDC=180°
On putting the value,
60°+angle BDC=180°
Angle BDC=180°-60°
=120°
Now, in triangle BDC,
BD=DC (given)
So, angle DBC=angle DCB (angles opposite to equal sides are also equal)
The sum of all the angles in triangle BDC=180°
Angle DBC+Angle DCB+AngleBDC=180°
Putting the values,
2×Angle DCB+120°=180°
2×Angle DCB=180°-120°
2×Angle DCB=60°
Angle DCB=x°=30°
Therefore, the value of x° is 30°.
