Solution
In the given problem, we need to find the value of x if l1 || l2
Here, if l1 || l2 , then using the property, “if the two lines are parallel, then the alternate interior angles are equal”, we get,
∠ABD = ∠EAB
78° = ∠EAC + ∠CAB
78° = 35° + ∠CAB
∠CAB = 78° - 35°
∠CAB = 43°
Further, applying angle sum property of the triangle
In ΔABC
∠CAB + ∠ACB + ∠CBA = 180°
43° + 90° + x = 180°
x = 180° - 133°
x = 47°
Thus, x = 47°
