In a circle I is the incentre of triangle ABC, BI when produced meets the circumcircle of triangle ANC at D.
Given that Angle BAC=55 degrees; Angle ACB= 65degrees
Calculate:-
i) Angle DCA
ii)Angle DAC
iii) Angle DCI
iv) Angle AIC
Dear Student!
Here is the answer to your query.
Given : ∠BAC = 55° as ∠ACB = 65°
I is the incentre of triangle ABC
⇒ AI, BI and CI are the angle bisectors of ∠BAC, ∠ABC and ∠ACB
Now in ΔABC
∠BAC + ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180° (Angle sum property)
⇒ 55° + ∠ABC + 65° = 180°
⇒ ∠ABC + 120° = 180°
⇒ ∠ABC = 180° – 120° = 60°
We know that angles in the same segment of the circle are equal.
⇒ ∠DCA = ∠ABD = ∠ABC =
∠DCA = ∠DBC = ∠ABC =
Now ∠DCI = ∠DCA + ∠ACI = ∠BCA
In ΔACI
∠CAI + ∠ACI + ∠AIC = 180° (Angle sum property)
⇒ ∠BAC + ∠BCA + ∠AIC = 180°
Cheers!
