ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral in which AB is parallel to DC and AB is a diameter of the circle. Given ∠BED = 65°; Calculate:
(i) ∠DAB, (ii) ∠BDC

(i) ∠DAB = ∠BED = 65°
(Angle subtended by the same chord on the circle are equal)
(ii) ∠ADB = 90°
(Angle in a semicircle is a right angle)
∴ ∠ABD = 90° - ∠DAB = 90° - 65° = 25°
AB || DC
∴ ∠BDC = ∠ABD = 25° (Alternate angles)
