The sum of the four internal angles of a quadrilateral is 360�.
Since ∠A is 60�, that leaves 300� for the sum of angles
∠A, ∠BCD, and ∠D.  Therefore they are 100� each since they are equal.



∠A and ∠CED are equal since they are corresponding angles when 
transversal AD cuts parallel lines AB and CE, and so ∠CED = 60�.



The three interior angles of ᐃECD must have sum 180�, and
since ∠CED = 60� and ∠D = 100�, they sum to 160�, leaving
∠ECD = 20�
