We want to find the value of x.
Let's recall the Congruent Corresponding Chords Theorem.

|
In the same circle two minor arcs are congruent if and only if their corresponding chords are congruent. |
We know that the chords ED and AB are congruent. Therefore, by the theorem, the corresponding minor arcs are also congruent. 5x^(∘)= 105^(∘) ⇔ x^(∘)=21^(∘)
