If CE||DB, what is the value of x:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
In the given figure, for quadrilateral ABCD,
A+B+C+D = 360
Now assuming the missing angle CBD adjoining to 30 be y
110+30+y+75+60 = 360
y = 360-275 = 85
In triangle BCD, CBD+BDC+BCD = 180 (Assume BDC = p)
y+p+60 = 180
p = 180-60-85
p = 35
since CE is parallel to DB
due to interior angle property, BDC+DCE = 180
p+60+x = 180
DCE = 180-35-60 = 85
The correct answer is Option (4) → 85°
