angle ACB
Answers
★ given →
- ∠BAC = 55°
- ∠BDC = 100°
- ∠BCD = 25°
and we know that Arrows on lines are used to indicate that those lines are parallel.
- ➪ DE || BC
★ solution →
i) ∠EDC
☞︎︎︎ we have DE || BC
here, DC is transversal line so ∠BCD and ∠EDC are alternate angles.
➪ ∠BCD = ∠EDC (alternate angles are equal)
and it is give that ∠BCD = 25°
_________________________
ii) ∠ADE
☞︎︎︎ we have, ACB is a line and ∠BDC, ∠EDC and ∠ADE are angles of a line.
➪ ∠BDC + ∠EDC + ∠ADE = 180°
(by linear pair or we know that sum of angles of a line is 180°)
and we have,
- ∠BDC = 100° (given)
- ∠EDC = 25° [from eq.(i)]
➪ 100° + 25° + ∠ADE = 180°
➪ 125° + ∠ADE = 180°
➪ ∠ADE = 180° - 125°

iii) ∠AED
☞︎︎︎ in ∆ADE
∠A + ∠D + ∠E = 180° (angle sum property of a triangle, sum of all angles of a triangle is 180°)
➪ ∠DAE + ∠ADE + ∠AED = 180°
we have,
- ∠DAE = 55° (given)
- ∠ADE = 55° [from eq.(ii)]
➪ 55° + 55° + ∠AED = 180°
➪ 110° +∠AED = 180°
➪ ∠AED = 180° - 110°

iv) ∠DCE
☞︎︎︎ in ∆ADC,
∠A + ∠D +∠C = 180° (angle sum property of a triangle, sum of all angles of a triangle is 180°)
➪ ∠DAC + ∠ADC + ∠DCA = 180°
➪ ∠DAC + ∠ADE + ∠EDC + ∠DCA = 180°
we have,
- ∠DAC = 55° (given)
- ∠ADE = 55° [from eq.(ii)]
- ∠EDC = 25° [from eq.(i)]
➪ 55° + 55° + 25° + ∠DCA = 180°
➪ 110° + 25° + ∠DCA = 180°
➪ 135° + ∠DCA = 180°
➪ ∠DCA = 180° - 135°
➪ ∠DCA = 45°

v) ∠DEC
☞︎︎︎ in ∆DEC,
∠D + ∠E + ∠C = 180° (angle sum property of a triangle, sum of all angles of a triangle is 180°)
➪ ∠EDC + ∠DCE + ∠DEC = 180°
we have,
- ∠EDC = 25° [from eq.(i)]
- ∠DCE = 45° [from eq.(iv)]
➪ 25° + 45° + ∠DEC = 180°
➪ 70° + ∠DEC = 180°
➪ ∠DEC = 180° - 70°
_________________________
vi) ∠ACB
☞︎︎︎ ∠ACB = ∠ACD + ∠BCD
we have,
- ∠ACD = ∠DCE = 45° [from eq.(iv)]
- ∠BCD = 25° (given)
➪ ∠ACB = 45° + 25°
