Answer:
ABCD is a rhombus.
⇒AC=BC ........(1)(given)
BC=AB .....(2)(side of rhombus)
From eqns(1) and (2)
AC=BC=AB
⇒△ABC is equilateral triangle.
So, ∠ABC=60
∠BCA=60 ..........(3)
∠CAB=60 ..........(4)
Similarly, in △ADC,AD=DC(sides of a rhombus) AD=BC
But BC=AC
∴AD=AC
∴AD=DC=AC
∴DAC is an equilateral triangle.
⇒∠CAD=60 ......(5)
⇒∠ADC=60
⇒∠DCA=60 .......(6)
From eqns(3) and (6) we get
∠BCA+∠DCA= 60 +60 =120
∴∠C=120
From eqns(4) and (5),
∠CAB+∠CAD=60 +60 =120
∴∠A=120
Hence the four angles of the Rhombus are 120,60, 120, 60
