(i) By angle – sum property of triangle ABD,
∠BAD + ∠ABD + ∠ADB = 180°
133° + ∠ADB = 180°
∠ADB = 180° - 133°
∠ADB = 47°
∴ ∠ADC = ∠ADB + ∠BDC
∴ 77° = 47° + ∠BDC
∴ 77° - 47° = ∠BDC
∴ ∠BDC = 30°
(ii) ∠BAD + ∠BCD = 180° ...(Sum of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180°)
⇒ ∠BCD = 180° - 75° = 105°
∴ ∠BCD = 105°
(iii) ∠BCA = ∠BDA = 47° ...(Angle subtended by the same chord on the circle are equal)
