Angle BAC measures 56°. What is the measure of angle BDC?
28°, 34°, 56°, 112°
Solution:
Given, angle BAC measures 56 degrees.
We have to find the measure of angle BDC.
We know that angles in the same segment of a circle are equal. In other words, an arc in a circle will subtend equal angles anywhere on the circumference.
Consider the following figure, which shows an arc AB subtending angles ACB and ADB at two arbitrary points C and D on the circumference.
O is the center of the circle. ∠ACB= ∠ADB.
So, angle BAC and BDC have the same arc Bc in the circumference, these angles must be congruent.
So, angle BDC is equal to 56 degrees.
Therefore, ∠BDC = 56°
Angle BAC measures 56°. What is the measure of angle BDC?
Summary:
Angle BAC measures 56°. The measure of angle BDC is 56°.
