    Question

    In a circle AB is diameter and points C and D are on

    the circumference such that ∠ CAD = 40° and ∠ CBA = 60°. What is the value of ∠ ACD?
    A 20° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 30° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 40° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 50° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    According to figure above, ∠ CAD and ∠ CBD subtend the same arc DC on the circumference. ⇒∠ CAD = ∠ CBD = 40° Also, ∠ DBA = ∠ CBA - ∠ CBD = 60 - 40 = 20°. Now ∠ DBA and ∠ ACD subtend the same arc DA on the circumference of the circle. ⇒∠ ACD = ∠ DBA = 20°.
