ABCD is a rhombus such that ∠ACB = 40º. Then ∠ADB is
a. 40º
b. 45º
c. 50º
d. 60º
Solution:
From the question
ABCD is a rhombus
∠ACB = 40º
From the figure
∠ACB = 40°
∠OCB = 40°
As AD ∥ BC
∠DAC = ∠BCA = 40° (Alternate interior angles)
∠DAO = 40°
Diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular to each other
∠AOD = 90°
From the angle sum property of triangle, the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°
We can write it as
∠AOD + ∠ADO + ∠DAO = 180°
Substituting the values
90° + ∠ADO + 40° = 180°
130° + ∠ADO = 180°
So we get
∠ADO = 180° – 130°
∠ADO = 50°
∠ADB = 50°
Therefore, ∠ADB is 50°.
