Answer

(i) From figure,

∠ABC = 90° (∵ angle in semicircle is equal to 90°)

Hence, the value of ∠ABC = 90°.

(ii) Since opposite angles sum is 180° in cyclic quadrilateral

⇒ ∠BAD + ∠BCD = 180°
⇒ ∠BAD + 75° = 180°
⇒ ∠BAD = 180° - 75°
⇒ ∠BAD = 105°.

From figure,

∠EAF = ∠BAD = 105°.

Hence, the value of ∠BAD = 105°.
