Question
In the given figure, $\triangle\text{ABC}$ and $\triangle\text{DBC}$ are inscribed in a circle such that $\angle\text{BAC}=60^\circ$ and $\angle\text{DBC}=50^\circ.$ Then $\angle\text{BCD}=?$

  1. 50°
  2. 60°
  3. 70°
  4. 80°

Answer

  1. 70°

Solution:

Since angles in the same segment of a circle are equal.

$\angle\text{BAC}=\angle\text{BDC}=60^\circ.$

In $\triangle\text{BDC},$

$\angle\text{BDC}+\angle\text{DBC}+\angle\text{BCD}=180^\circ.$

$\Rightarrow\ 60^\circ+50^\circ+\angle\text{BCD}=180^\circ$

$\Rightarrow\ \angle\text{BCD}=70^\circ$
