Answer:
Given that,
⇒ ∠ABE = 70°
⇒ ∠DCE = 80°
⇒ BC = EC
Let us assume Angle CDE = x°.
According to the question,
⇒ ∠ BAC = 1.5 ( ∠ CDE )
⇒ ∠ BAC = 1.5 ( x° ) = 1.5x
Also, since AC and BD intersect at E, Angles AEB and DEC are equal as they are vertically opposite angles.
Now, Consider Δ ABE and Δ DCE:
According to angle sum property, sum of all interior angles of a triangle is equal to 180°. Using that we get:
In Δ ABE:
⇒ 1.5 x + 70° + ∠ AEB = 180° ...(i)
In Δ DCE:
⇒ x + 80° + ∠ DEC = 180° ...(ii)
Equating the LHS of (i) and (ii) we get:
⇒ 1.5 x + 70° + ∠ AEB = x + 80° + ∠ DEC
Since ∠ AEB and ∠ DEC are equal we can cancel them. Hence we get:
⇒ 1.5x + 70° = x + 80°
⇒ 1.5x - x = 80° - 70°
⇒ 0.5x = 10°
⇒ x = 10/0.5 = 20°
Hence the value of x (∠CDE) is 20°.
Therefore in Δ DCE,
⇒ ∠ DEC = 180° - 80° - x°
⇒ ∠ DEC = 180° - 80° - 20°
⇒ ∠ DEC = 80°
Now consider the line BD. The angles DEC and BEC are lying along the straight line. Hence they are supplementary.
⇒ ∠ DEC + ∠ BEC = 180°
⇒ 80° + ∠ BEC = 180°
⇒ ∠ BEC = 180° - 80°
⇒ ∠ BEC = 100°
Hence Option (B) is the correct answer.
