Given ĀC is congruent to EC
Prove: triangle ACD Is congruent to triangle ECB

x = 100, y = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a system of equations:

First, you know that x + y degrees and 30 degrees are on a line together, they add up to 180 degrees:

x + y + 30 = 180

x + y = 150

Next, the interior angles of a triangle always add up to 180 degrees, and since 2y, x/2, and 30 are all the angles in a triangle, you have:

2y + x/2 + 30 = 180

x/2 + 2y = 150

Now, all you have to do is solve the system of equations.

To start, multiply the second equation by 2 to get rid of the fraction:

x + 4y = 300

Then, you can subtract the two equations:

x + 4y = 300

- (x + y = 150)

3y = 150

divide both sides by 3

y = 50

substitute y = 50 into the equation x + y = 150:

x + 50 = 150

x = 100
