This Question Diagram will attach in attachment file:
Given:- Let ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.
To prove:- ∠A + ∠C = 180° and ∠B + ∠C = 180°
Construction :- Join OB and OD.
Proof :- ∠BOD = 2∠BAD
∠BAD = 1/2∠BOD
Similarly ∠BCD = 1/2∠DOB
∠BAD + ∠BCD = 1/2∠BOD + 1/2∠DOB
= 1/2(∠BOD + ∠DOB)
= 1/2(360°)
= 180°
Similarly ∠B +∠D = 180° (Hence Proved)

Theorem - The opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.
Given - ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral
To prove - Opposite angles to be supplementary.
Construction - Join OB and OD
Proof -
We know,
Angle (BOD) = 2*Angle(BAD)...(1)
(By property of circle)
Similarly,
Angle(DOB) = 2*Angle(BCD).... (2)
Adding (1) and (2),
Angle (BAD) + Angle (BCD) = 1/2*Angle(BOD) + 1/2*Angle(DOB)
= 1/2*{Angle(BOD) + Angle(DOB)}
= 1/2*360
= 180°
Similarly,
Angle(B) + Angle(D) = 180°
Hence proved.
