In the figure, AC is diameter, angle A = 35°, the angle C is equal to
(A) 90° (B) 35° (C) 55° (D) 70°
Answers
Answer:
110°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that AC is the diameter of the circle,
Also, Given that ∠ADB = 20°,
Now, if we consider AB as the chord of the circle and the major segment
ADCB, we have
∠ACB = ∠ADB ( Angles in the same segment)
∠ACB = 20°.
Also,
∠ABC = 90°( Angle subtnded by the diameter of a circle)
Now, in triangle ABC,
∠ABC + ∠BCA +∠CAB = 180°
=> ∠CAB = 180° - 90° - 20°
=>∠CAB = 70°.
Now, consider the quadrilateral ACPB, we can observe that all the vertices
of the quadrilateral lie on the same circle, hence ACPB is a cyclic
quadrilateral.
We know that, in a cyclic quadrilateral opposite angles are supplementary
Hence, ∠CAB + ∠BPC = 180°
=>∠BPC = 180° - 70°
= 110°
The Value of Angle C = 55 degrees.
GIVEN: AC is diameter, angle A = 35°,
TO FIND: Value of Angle C
SOLUTION:
As we are given in the question,
BD is the diameter of the circle.
An angle in a semicircle is a right angle
∠BAD = 900
Consider ∠BAD
Using the angle sum property
∠ADB + ∠BAD + ∠ABD = 180°
By substituting the values
∠ADB + 90° + 35° = 180°
On further calculation
∠ADB = 180° - 90° - 35°
By subtraction
∠ADB = 180° - 125°
So we get
∠ADB = 55°
We know that,
The angles in the same segment of a circle are equal
∠ACB = ∠ADB = 55°
So we get
∠ACB = 55°
Therefore,
∠ACB = 55°
