Transcribed Image Text:**Trapezoid Problem**
**Objective:** Solve for \( x \). Each figure is a trapezoid.
**Diagram Description:**
We have a trapezoid \( EBCD \) with the following features:
- The top base \( EB \) has an expression \( 8x - 3 \).
- There is an angle of \( 95^\circ \) at vertex \( D \).
In a trapezoid, one pair of opposite sides are parallel. Here, it is implied that the bases \( EB \) and \( DC \) are parallel. The task is to find the value of \( x \) based on the given information.
**Instruction:** Consider the properties of trapezoids and any relevant geometric theorems or equations that could be applied to solve for \( x \).
