  1. Let F be the intersection of BD and AC , G be the intersection of ED and AC ,angle BAE=m and angle CDE=n. Then, angle BFC=alpha+2m=beta+2n.
    Besides, angle DGA=x+m. So, x+m+n=alpha+2m=beta+2n. solving, x=(alpha+beta)/2.

  2. 1. Let F be the intersection of BD and AC , G be the intersection of ED and AC, angle BAE=m and angle CDE=n

    2. Angle chase DFE = 180 - (beta + n) and AGE = 180 - (alpha + m)
    3. Then consider triangles AEG and DEF:
    for AEG: x + m + (180 - (beta + n)) = 180 or x + m = beta + n
    for DEF: x + n + (180 - (alpha + m)) = 180 or x + n = alpha + m.

    4. Add the two equations together: 2x + (m+n) = alpha + beta + (m+n) and
    simplify to get x = (alpha + beta) / 2

  3. < sum of a pentagram=180
    So, <CBD+<BCA=180-x-<EAC-<EDB
    180-x-<EAC-<EDB+a+<BAC=180
    a=x+<EAC+<EDB-<BAC
    a=x+0.5blue-0.5green
    --------------------------------
    180-x-<EAC-<EDB+b+<CDB=180
    b=x+<EAC+<EDB-<CDB
    b=x+0.5green-0.5blue
    --------------------------------
    a+b=2x
    x=(a+b)/2
