Answers
Answer:
To Find:- value of x
Given:-
AC=BC
Solution:-
∠ACD+∠CDA+∠DAC=180°(sum of all interior angles of a triangle are supplementary)
∠ACD+x+x+14=180
∠ACD+2x+14=180 (Eq. 1)
In ∆ABC
∠ABC+∠BCA+∠CAB=180°(sum of all interior angles of a triangle are supplementary)
Given BC=AB
then
∠ABC=∠CBA (angles opposite to equal angles of a triangle are equal)
So,let them be x
that is x+x=2x (Eq. 2)
Also
∠CAB=32°(vertically opposite angles are equal)
therefore
So,from (Eq. 2)
∠CAB+2x=180
32+2x=180
2x=180-32
2x=148
x=148÷2
x=74°
Therefore In ∆ABC
∠CAB=32°
∠ABC=74°
∠BCA=74°
and now
In ∆ACD
∠ACD+∠BCA=180°(adjacent angles are supplementary)
∠ACD+74°=180
∠ACD=180-74°
∠ACD=106°
And now to find x
from (Eq. 1)
∠ACD+x+x+14=180
106+2x+14=180
2x+120=180
2x=180-120=60°
x=60/2
x=30°
Therefore the angles are
In ∆ACD
∠ACD=106°
∠CAD=x=30°
∠ADC=x+14=30+14=44°
In ∆ABC
∠BAC=32°
∠ABC=74°
∠BCA=74°
