In the given figure, sides AD and AB of cyclic quadrilateral ABCD are produced to E and F respectively.
Question:
In the given figure, sides AD and AB of cyclic quadrilateral ABCD are produced to E and F respectively. If ∠CBF = 130° and ∠CDE = x°, find the value of x.
Solution:
ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.
We know that in a cyclic quadrilateral, the exterior angle is equal to the interior opposite angle.
∴ ∠CBF = ∠CDA
⇒ ∠CBF = (180° – x)
⇒ 130° = 180° – x [∵ ∠CBF = 130°]
⇒ x = (180° – 130°) = 50°
Hence, x = 50°
