CAT 2017 Question Paper (Shift-2) - Quant Question 18
Question 18

ABCD is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle with centre O such that O lies inside the quadrilateral. If $$\angle COD = 120$$ degrees and $$\angle BAC = 30$$ degrees, then the value of $$\angle BCD$$ (in degrees) is


Correct Answer: 90

Solution

$$\angle COD = 120$$ => $$\angle CAD = 120/2 = 60$$ (The angle subtended by the chord DC at the major arc is half the angle subtended at the centre of the circle.)
$$\angle BAC = 30$$
$$\angle BAD = \angle BAC + \angle CAD$$ = 30 + 60 = 90.
$$\angle BCD = 180 - \angle BAD$$ = 180 - 90 = 90

Since BOD is straight line, Angle BOC = 180-120=60 Degrees. Further, BOC is equilateral triangle. Hence, BCA = 60 Degrees
