    Draw lines per attached sketch
    Note that ADE, CEF and ABF are isosceles triangles.
    And BO⊥CE , ∠ECO=∠CEO= 90- α
    AD=BC=DE
    ∆ OCB congruence to ∆ODE … ( Case SAS)
    So OB=OD and triangle BOD is isosceles
    X= (180-72)/2=54

  2. To Peter Tran:

    Please explain why
    BO ⊥ CE
    Where it is used?

      Thank you for your comment. The correct statement should be CO ⊥EF instead of BO⊥ CE . The solution and the result is valid with this correction. See attached sketch above for details
