Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is
D
Solution and Explanation
The correct option is (D): 60°
The opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.
∠BAC + ∠BDC = 180°
∠ABD + ∠ACD = 180°
∠BDC = 110°
∠ACD = 95°
In ∆BCD:
∠BCD = ∠CBD [BD = CD]
∠BCD + ∠CBD + ∠BDC = 180°
∠BCD = 35°
∠ACD = 95°
∠BCA + ∠BCD = 95°
∠BCA = 60°
