$ABC$ is a triangle. The bisectors of theinternal angle $\angle B$ and external angle $\angle C$ intersect at $D$. if $\angle BDC = 60^\circ$ then $\angle A$ is
  • A
    $120^\circ$
  • B
    $180^\circ$
  • $60^\circ$
  • D
    $150^\circ$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$60^\circ$
Consider $△ABC$ Let $BC$ be extended to $E$ Since Angular bisectors Meet at $D \angle ABD = \angle DBC ⋯ (1)$
$\angle ACD =\angle DCE ⋯ (2)$
Consider $△DBC$ By External sum property $\angle DCE = \angle BDC + \angle DBC $
$⟹ 2 \angle DCE = 2(60^\circ ) + 2 \angle DBC $
$⟹ \angle ACE = 120^\circ +\angle ABC $
By external sum property of
$△ABC \angle ACE = \angle BAC + \angle ABC$
$⟹ \angle A = 60^\circ$
