1. **Problem statement:** Given parallelogram ABCD with angles at A as $6x$, at B as $72^\circ$, and at D as $72^\circ$, find the value of $x$.
2. **Recall properties of parallelograms:** Opposite angles are equal, and adjacent angles are supplementary (sum to $180^\circ$).
3. Since angle B and angle D are both $72^\circ$, and opposite angles are equal, angle A and angle C must be equal as well.
4. Adjacent angles sum to $180^\circ$, so angle A and angle B satisfy:
$$6x + 72 = 180$$
5. Solve for $x$:
$$6x + 72 = 180$$
$$6x = 180 - 72$$
$$6x = 108$$
$$x = \frac{108}{6}$$
$$x = 18$$
6. **Answer:** The value of $x$ is $18$.
