SSC CGL 2021 PYQ — Question 66

SSC CGL - 24 Aug 2021 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q66

ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral such that when sides AB and DC are produced, they meet at E,  and sides AD and BC meet at F, when produced. If ∠ADE = 80° and ∠AED = 50°, then what is the measures of ∠ AFB 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

 The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 30°

∠ADC + ∠ABC = 180° (Sum of opposite angle of a cyclic quadrilateral will be equal to 180)

∠ABC = 180 - 80 = 100°.

In triangle AED,

∠ADE + ∠DEA + ∠DAE = 180°

80 + 50 + ∠DAE = 180

∠DAE = 50°.

Now in triangle ABF,

∠AFB = 180 - ∠ABF - ∠BAF

= 180 - 100 - 50 

= 30°.
