MCQ
In Figure. $BC = CA$ and $\angle\text{A} = 40$. Then, $\angle\text{ACD}$ is equal to:
  • A
    $40^\circ$
  • $80^\circ$
  • C
    $120^\circ$
  • D
    60°

Answer

Correct option: B.
$80^\circ$

$\text{Given}, \ \text{BC}=\text{CA},$
$\therefore\angle\text{B}=\angle\text{A}=40^{\circ}$ $[\because$ opposite angles of two equal sides are equal$]$
As we know, the measure of any exterior angles of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measure of its two interior opposite angles.
So, $\angle\text{ACD}=\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}=40^{\circ}+40^{\circ}$
$\angle\text{ACD}=80^{\circ}$.
