Question
In the given figure, ABCD is a parallelogram in which $\angle\text{BDC}=45^{\circ}$ and $\angle\text{BAD}=75^{\circ}.$ Then, $\angle\text{CBD}=?$
- 45°
- 55°
- 60°
- 75°
✓
Answer
- 60°.
Solution:
Since ABCD is a parallelogram, AB || CD since opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal.
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{ABD}=\angle\text{BCD}=45^{\circ}$ ...(Alternate angles)
In $\triangle\text{ADB},$
$\angle\text{ABD}+\angle\text{BDA}+\angle\text{DAB}=180^{\circ}$ ...(Angle sum property)
$\Rightarrow45+\angle\text{BDA}+75=180$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{BDA}+120=180$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{BDA}=60^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{CBD}=\angle\text{BDA}=60^{\circ}$ ...(Alternate angles)
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{CBD}=60^{\circ}$
