MCQ
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, $\angle\text{BCD}=?$
  • A
    $60^\circ$
  • B
    $50^\circ$
  • C
    $80^\circ$
  • $70^\circ$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$70^\circ$

$\angle\text{BDC}=\angle\text{BAC}=60^\circ$ (Angles in the same segment of a circle)
In $\triangle\text{BDC},$ we have
$\angle\text{DBC}+\angle\text{BDC}+\angle\text{BCD}=180^\circ$ (Angle sum property of a triangle)
$\therefore50^\circ+60^\circ+\angle\text{BCD}=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{BCD}=180^\circ-(50^\circ+60^\circ)=(180^\circ-110^\circ)=70^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{BCD}=70^\circ$
