  1. Let b= AC=AD
    We have DC=DE= 2. b. sin(2α )
    ∠(BED)=3α
    Relation in triangle AED => ED/sin(2α )= AD/sin(3α) = 2.b.sin(2α )/ sin(2α )= 2.b
    So sin(3α )= ½= sin(30) => α = 10
    So x= 90- 4α = 50

  3. We build
    AH perpendicular BC
    DF perpendicular AB

    DF=DH = 1/2ED X =50 grade

    1. Hi Erina,
      Please, send again your complete solution, there is some problem with the system.
      Thanks. Antonio

  4. Hi Antonio

    Please publish the full solution

    Prob 1027
    We build AH perpendicular BC and DF perpendicular AB
    CH=HD=1/2DC=1/2ED
    DF=DH=1/2ED
    α =10
    X=90-4α
    X=50

    Prob 1028

    BE=ED=EC EM=EN EN =1/2 EC
    Triangle ECN < ECN =30 ECN = 90-4X -> X =15

    Prob 1029
    We note <BDF = 90
    BD perpendicular AC

  5. We build

    1. AH perpendicular BC --> CH =HD =1/2 DC = 1/2ED
    2. DF perpendicular AB ----> DF=DH =1/2 ED
    3. triangle DEF α =10
    4. X=90-4α X = 50
