ABCD is a cyclic trapezium whose sides AD and BC are parallel to each other, if $$\angle ABC = 75^\circ$$ , then the measure of $$\angle BCD$$ is:
Given : $$\angle ABC = 75^\circ$$ and AD$$\parallel$$BC
To find :Â $$\angle$$ BCD = ?
Solution : In a cyclic quadrilateral, sum of opposite angles is supplementary.
=>Â $$\angle$$Â ABC +Â $$\angle$$Â ADC = $$180^\circ$$
=> $$\angle$$Â ADC = $$180^\circ-75^\circ=105^\circ$$
Also, $$\angle$$Â ADC +Â $$\angle$$Â BCD = $$180^\circ$$ Â Â [Angles on the same side of transversal]
=> $$\angle$$Â BCD = Â $$180^\circ-105^\circ=75^\circ$$
