Question

In a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD if AB || CD and ∠B = 70°, find the remaining angles.

 
Short Note

Solution

It is given that, ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral such that AB || CD and `angle B = 70°`

Sum of pair of opposite angles of cyclic quadrilateral is 180°.
      `angle B + angle D = 180°`       (`angleB = 70° `
 given)

So, `angle D = 110°`

Also AB || CD and BC transversal

So,

`angleB + angleC = 180°` 

            `angleC = 180 ° - 70° `

                    = 110°

Now

`angleA + angleC = 180°`

             `angleA = 180 °- angleC `

                     = 180° - 110 °

                     = 70°

    `angleD` = 180° - 70° 

            `angleD = 110°`
