Step-by-step solution

The side angles in a kite are equal, therefore:

B=C=70 B=C=70

Also, therefore:

ACB=30 ACB=30

BCD=40 BCD=40

Now we can calculate angle A. Since the sum of angles in a triangle is 180, this is done as follows:

1803030=120 180-30-30=120

Now we can calculate angle D. As we know, the sum of angles in a kite is 360, so:

3601207070=100 360-120-70-70=100

D=100 D=100
