Solution


We know that the sum of all three angles of a triangle is equal to 180°.Therefore, for the given ABC, we can say that:A+B+C=180° (Sum of angles of ABC)50°+70°+C=180°C=180°-120°C=60°ACD=BCD=C2(CD bisects C and meets ABinD.)ACD=BCD=60°2=30°Using the same logic for the given ACD, we can say that:DAC+ACD+ADC=180°50°+30°+ADC=180°ADC=180°-80°ADC=100°If we use the same logic for the given BCD, we can say that:DBC+BCD+BDC=180°70°+30°+BDC=180°BDC=180°-100°BDC=80°Thus,For ADC: A = 50°, D =100°, C = 30°For BDC: B = 70°, D= 80° , C= 30°
