Answer
(i) We know that,
Angles in same segment are equal.
∠DBC = ∠DAC = 27°.
Hence, ∠DBC = 27°.
(ii) We know that,
Angles in same segment are equal.
∠ACB = ∠ADB = 33°.
and,
∠ACD = ∠ABD = 50°.
From figure,
⇒ ∠DCB = ∠ACD + ∠ACB = 50° + 33° = 83°.
Hence, ∠DCB = 83°.
(iii) In quad. ABCD,
⇒ ∠DAB + ∠DCB = 180° [As sum of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral = 180°]
⇒ ∠DAC + ∠CAB + ∠DCB = 180°
⇒ 27° + 83° + ∠CAB = 180°
⇒ ∠CAB + 110° = 180°
⇒ ∠CAB = 180° - 110° = 70°.
Hence, ∠CAB = 70°.
