Question

In the given figure $\angle ABC={40}^{\circ }$, then angle $\angle BEA$ is equal to?

• A. ${30}^{\circ }$
• B. ${40}^{\circ }$
• C. ${50}^{\circ }$
• D. ${60}^{\circ }$

Answer 1

The correct option is B ${40}^{\circ }$

From tangent secant theorem , angle in alternate segment are equal
So, $\angle ABC=\angle BEA={40}^{\circ }$
Hence, $\angle BEA={40}^{\circ }$
