    According to question ,
    Given , ∠ A + ∠ B = 65°
    In ∆ ABC,
    As we know that , ∠ A + ∠ B + ∠ C = 180°
    ∴ ∠ C = 180° – 65° = 115°
    and ∠ B + ∠ C = 140°

    Correct Option: B

    According to question ,
    Given , ∠ A + ∠ B = 65°
    In ∆ ABC,
    As we know that , ∠ A + ∠ B + ∠ C = 180°
    ∴ ∠ C = 180° – 65° = 115°
    and ∠ B + ∠ C = 140°
    ⇒ ∠ B + 115° = 140°
    ∴ ∠ B = 140° – 115° = 25°

    According to question , we draw a figure of a triangle ABC

    Let ∠ ABC = ∠ ACB = y [∵AB = AC]
    ∴ ∠ BAC = 180° – 2y
    ⇒ ∠CAD = 180° – 2y
    Also, ∠BAD = 180°

    Correct Option: D

    According to question , we draw a figure of a triangle ABC

    Let ∠ ABC = ∠ ACB = y [∵AB = AC]
    ∴ ∠ BAC = 180° – 2y
    ⇒ ∠CAD = 180° – 2y
    Also, ∠BAD = 180°
    ∴ 180° = (180° – 2y) × 2
    ⇒ 180° – 2y = 90°
    ⇒ 2y = 90° = ∠ BCD

    As per the given in question , we draw a figure of a triangle ABC

    Given that , ∠ BAC = 75°, ∠ABC = 45° , ∠ ACD = x°
    As we know that sum of three angles of triangle is 180°
    ∠ ACB = 180° – 75° – 45° = 60°
    ∠ ACD = 180° – 60° = 120° = x

    Correct Option: D

    According to question , we draw a figure of ∆ ABC
    Given , ∠A : ∠B : ∠C = 2 : 3 : 4
    Let ∠A = 2y , ∠B = 3y , ∠C = 4y
    In ∆ ABC ,
    We know that , 2y + 3y + 4y = 180°
    ⇒ 9y = 180°
    ⇒ y = 20°
    ∴ Angles of triangle are 40°, 60° and 80°

    AB || CD

    Correct Option: B

    According to question , we draw a figure of ∆ ABC
    Given , ∠A : ∠B : ∠C = 2 : 3 : 4
    Let ∠A = 2y , ∠B = 3y , ∠C = 4y
    In ∆ ABC ,

    AB || CD
    ∠DCE = ∠ABC = 60°
    ∴ ∠ACB + ∠ACD + ∠DCE = 180°
    ⇒ ∠ACD = 180° – 120° = 60°



  1. Two chords AB, CD of a circle with centre O intersect each other at P. ∠ADP = 23° and ∠APC = 70°, then the ∠BCD is

    On the basis of question we draw a figure of a circle with centre O

    ∠APC = 70° = ∠DPB
    ∴ ∠APD = 180° – 70° = 110° = ∠BPC
    Also, ∠ADC = ∠ABC = 23°

    Correct Option: B

    On the basis of question we draw a figure of a circle with centre O

    ∠APC = 70° = ∠DPB
    ∴ ∠APD = 180° – 70° = 110° = ∠BPC
    Also, ∠ADC = ∠ABC = 23°
    ∴ ∠BCD = 180° –110° – 23°= 47°
