In the diagram, point E lies on line segment AB, and triangles AED and BEC are isosceles. Also, angle DEC is twice ADE. What is the measure of EBC in degrees?

Both triangles are isosceles

 

Angle  AED  = 80°

 

Angle ADE  =   180 - 2(80) =  20°

 

Angle  DEC = 2ADE  = 2 * 20 =   40°

 

Angle BEC = 180  - 80 - 40  =  60°

 

Angle EBC =  (180 - 60)  /  2  =   120 /  2  =   60°
