Required Proof:

✒ GiveN:

  • A cyclic quadrilateral.

✒ To prove:

  • Outer angle of a cyclic quadrilateral is equal to the inner angle at opposite vertex !!

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

How to Solve?

For proving the above statement, we need to know a theoram based on Cyclic quadrilaterals( The quadrilateral inside a circle, whose vertices touched the circumference)

 \large{ \bf{Theoram:}}

➤ The sum of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral is supplementary i.e. they add upto 180°

So, Let's use this theoram, to prove this statement.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Solution:

✒ Refer to the attachment.....

According to theoram,

⇛ ∠CBA + ∠CDA = 180°...........(1)

[ Sum of opposite angles = 180°]

Now in line AE,

⇛ ∠CBA + ∠CBE = 180°...........(2)

[ These angles add upto 180° as they form a straight line, hence they are linear pair.]

From equation, (1) and (2)

⇛ ∠CBA + ∠CDA = ∠CBA + ∠CBE

⇛∠CDA = ∠CBE ( ∠CBA cancels both sides)

Here,

  • ∠CDA = Angle at opposite to ∠CBA
  • ∠CBE = Outer/Exterior angle of ∠CBA

✒ And, We proved that both of these angles are equal, Hence, Proved !
