Answer
(i) We know that,
Exterior angle of a cyclic quadrilateral is equal to interior opposite angle.
∠BAD = Exterior ∠BCE = 80°.
From figure,
∠CAD = ∠BAD - ∠BAC = 80° - 25° = 55°.
Hence, ∠CAD = 55°.
(ii) We know that,
Angles in same segment are equal.
∴ ∠CBD = ∠CAD = 55°.
Hence, ∠CBD = 55°.
(iii) We know that,
Angles in same segment are equal.
∴ ∠BDC = ∠BAC = 25°.
AB || DC and BD is transversal.
So, ∠ABD = ∠BDC = 25°. [Alternate angles are equal]
From figure,
∠ABC = ∠ABD + ∠CBD = 25° + 55° = 80°.
In cyclic quadrilateral ABCD,
⇒ ∠ABC + ∠ADC = 180° [Sum of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral = 180°]
⇒ 80° + ∠ADC = 180°
⇒ ∠ADC = 180° - 80° = 100°.
Hence, ∠ADC = 100°.
