To solve this problem, we first need to understand the given information and the figure provided.

### Given:
1. \(\frac{d}{b} = \frac{3}{7}\).
2. We need to find the value of angle \(\alpha\) (the blue angle) and justify the response.

### Solution Steps:

1. **Understanding the Relationship between Angles:**
   In the triangle, there is a right angle at the bottom right corner, and we know that the angle \(\alpha\) (blue) is an exterior angle to the triangle with angle \(a\) and angle \(b\). 

   We can use the property of triangles that states:
   \[
   \text{Exterior angle} = \text{Sum of the opposite interior angles}
   \]
   Thus:
   \[
   \alpha = a + b
   \]

2. **Given Ratio and Calculations:**
   Since we know the ratio \(\frac{d}{b} = \frac{3}{7}\), we can express \(d\) and \(b\) in terms of some common multiple, say \(k\):
   \[
   d = 3k, \quad b = 7k.
   \]

3. **Finding Angle \(\alpha\):**
   Let's consider the right triangle where the angle \(\alpha\) is present. We can use trigonometric ratios to find the relation between sides. 

To find the precise value of \(\alpha\), we would need to calculate the angles using the trigonometric properties or use geometric properties and ratios. Let me know if you want to continue with trigonometric or geometric details.

Given the figure where d/b = 3/7, find the value of angle α. Justify your response.

This problem involves finding the value of angle α using the given ratio of sides and applying the Exterior Angle Theorem and trigonometric principles. Suitable for students in Grades 10-12.
