    Question

    In a quadrilateral ABCD, AB = BC, AD = DC, ∠ABD = 68°, ∠ADB = (2y-7)°, ∠BDC = 33°, ∠DBC = (3x+2)°. Then the value of 2x+3y is:

    A.

    108

    B.

    144

    C.

    104

    D.

    118

    Correct option is C

    Given:
    AB = BC
    AD = DC
    ABD=68ADB=(2y7)BDC=33DBC=(3x+2)\angle ABD = 68^\circ \\\angle ADB = (2y - 7)^\circ \\\angle BDC = 33^\circ \\\angle DBC = (3x + 2)^\circ​​
    Concept Used:
    Congruency property of triangle:
    Side – Side – Side (SSS): if the respective sides of two triangle are equal than both the triangle are congruent to each other.
    In a congruent triangle: the area, sides, angles of the respective triangle are equal.

    Solution:

    In Quadrilaterals ABCD :
    Two triangles ABD\triangle ABD   and  CBD\triangle CBD   are formed.
    Now, in ABD\triangle ABD ​ and CBD\triangle CBD  ​​
    AB = CB (given}
    AD = CD (given)
    DB = BD (common side)
    therefore,  ABDCBD\triangle ABD \cong \triangle CBD 
    So, ADB=CDB\angle ADB = \angle CDB 
      2y7=332y=40y=20\implies 2y -7 = 33 \\ 2y = 40 \\ y = 20^\circ 
    Similarly, 
     ABD=CBD 68=3x+23x=66x=22\angle ABD = \angle CBD \\ \implies 68 = 3x +2 \\ 3x = 66 \\ x = 22^\circ 
    Thus , 2x + 3y = 2×22+3×20=44+60=1042 \times 22 + 3\times 20 = 44+60 = \bf104^\circ​​
