Answer
(i) ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.
Since exterior angle of a cyclic quadrilateral is equal to the opposite interior angle.
∴ ∠BCE = ∠DAB
⇒ ∠BCE = ∠CAD + ∠BAC
⇒ 80° = ∠CAD + 25°
⇒ ∠CAD = 80° - 25°
⇒ ∠CAD = 55°.
Hence, the value of ∠CAD = 55°.
(ii) From figure,
∠CBD = ∠CAD (∵ angles in same segment are equal.)
∠CBD = 55°.
Hence, the value of ∠CBD = 55°.
(iii) ∠BAC = ∠BDC (∵ angles in same segment are equal.)
∠BDC = 25°.
Now AB || DC and BD is the transversal
∠ABD = ∠BDC (∵ ∵ alternate angles are equal.)
⇒ ∠ABD = 25°
From figure,
∠ABC = ∠ABD + ∠CBD = 25° + 55° = 80°.
Since, sum of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180°.
⇒ ∠ABC + ∠ADC = 180°
⇒ 80° + ∠ADC = 180°
⇒ ∠ADC = 180° - 80°
⇒ ∠ADC = 100°.
Hence, the value of ∠ADC = 100°.
