Question
$ABCD$ is a cyclic qudrilateral in which: $\text{BC}\parallel\text{AD},\ \angle\text{ADC}=110^\circ$ and $\angle\text{BAC}=50^\circ.$ Find $\angle\text{DAC}.$

Answer


Since, $ABCD$ is a cyclic quadrilateral.
Then, $\angle\text{ABC}+\angle\text{ADC}=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{ABC}+110^\circ=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{ABC}=180^\circ-110^\circ=70^\circ$
Since, $AD || BC$ Then, $\angle\text{DAB}+\angle\text{ABC}=180^\circ$ [Co-interior angles]
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{DAC}+50^\circ+70^\circ=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{DAC}=180^\circ-50^\circ-70^\circ=60^\circ$

Hint:
$i.\text{AB}=\text{BC}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\text{AB}=\frac{1}{2}\text{BC}$
$\Rightarrow\text{AL}=\text{MC}.$
