Triangle A B C ABC is isosceles as indicated. This implies that A B C A C B = θ \angle{ABC}\cong\angle{ACB}=\theta .

A B C + 2 = 180 \angle{ABC}+2\diamond=180 and A C B + 2 x = 180 \angle{ACB}+2x=180

θ + 2 = 180 \theta+2\diamond=180 and θ + 2 x = 180 \theta+2x=180

θ + 2 = θ + 2 x \theta +2\diamond = \theta+2x

2 = 2 x 2\diamond=2x

= x \diamond=x

D B C D C B \angle{DBC}\cong\angle{DCB} thus making triangle B C D BCD isosceles
