How do I solve this?

OpenStudy (karatechopper):

Those lines on the side say that the angles are the same so tell me, how much is the total degree for this shape?

OpenStudy (quickstudent):

I thought those lines mean that the sides are the same length?

OpenStudy (sweetburger):

Yes, correct @quickstudent but they would also infer that the angles would be the same degree if you formed a triangle like this |dw:1470616369541:dw|

OpenStudy (sweetburger):

Now what you can do to find BCD is to start finding the missing angles of both triangles. x+x+127=180. solve for x and you have found the missing angles of the top triangle. y+y+43=180. solve for y and you have found the missing angles of the bottom triangle.
