  1. In a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD, the side AB is extended to a point X. If ∠XBC = 82° and ∠ADB = 47°, then the value of ∠BDC is :
    1. 40°
    2. 35°
    3. 30°
    4. 25°
Correct Option: B

On the basis of question we draw a figure of cyclic quadrilateral ABCD in which the side AB is extended to a point X ,

We know that the sum of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180°.
Given , ∠CBX = 82°
∴ ∠ABC = 180° – 82° = 98°
∴ ∠ADC + ∠ABC = 180°
⇒ ∠ADC = 180° – 98° = 82°
∠ADB = 47° .
∴ ∠BDC = 82° – 47° = 35°
