SSC CGL Tier II - Quant - 29 Jan 2022 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q81

ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral and BC is the diameter of the circle. If ∠DBC = 29º, then ∠BAD = ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

 The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 119º

One knows that the angle in a semicircle is equal to 90°.

∠BDC = 90°.

∠BCD = 180 - 90 -29 = 61°.

The sum of the opposite angle in a cyclic quadrilateral is 180 °

∠BAD + ∠BCD =180°

∠BAD = 180 - 61 = 119°.
