A cyclic quadrilateral is a quadrilateral whose vertices all touch the circumference of a circle. The opposite angles add up to 180o.
Inscribed angles subtended by a diameter are right.
Since AOB is a diameter therefore Angle ACB is 90 degrees ,Now since ACB is a Triangle therefore it will make a sum of 180 degrees which implies ABC to be 55 degrees .
Since as mentioned opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilatral make an angle of 180 degrees therefore angle ADC+ angle ABC = 180 degrees and since we have calculated angle ABC to be 55 degrees thus Angle ADB will be 115 degrees

Question:
In the given figure, AOB is a diameter of the circle and CD || AB. If \(\angle \)CAB = 25°, then find the value of \(\angle \)CAD.


Options:
A) 45°
B) 40°
C) 65°
D) 115°
Solution:
Ans: (b)

Please see the solution,

angle BCD + angle DAB = 180

25 + 90 +25 + angle CAD = 180

angle CAD = 40
