SSC CHSL - 13th October 2020 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q63

In the following g figures, if angles ∠ABC = 95o ∠FED = 115o (not to scale). Then the angle ∠APC is equal to:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e 150o

Understanding Application
The opposite angle of the cycle quadrilateral is 180°.

We will join points A & F.

In Quadrilateral AFED

⇒ ∠ABC + ∠AFC = 180o

⇒ 95o + ∠AFC = 180o

⇒ ∠AFC = 85o

In Quadrilateral ABCF

⇒ ∠ABC + ∠AFC = 180o

⇒ 95o + ∠AFC = 180o

⇒ ∠AFC = 85o

In triangle AFP

⇒ 85o + 65o + ∠FPA = 180o

⇒ ∠FPA = 180o - 150o

⇒ ∠FPA = 30o

⇒ ∠APC + ∠FPA = 180o

⇒ ∠APC = 150o
