Answer
Join AB and AD.
(i) We know that,
Angle which an arc subtends at the center is double that which it subtends at any point on the remaining part of the circumference.
∴ ∠AOB = 2∠APB = 2 × 75° = 150°.
Hence, ∠AOB = 150°.
(ii) We know that,
Sum of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral = 180°.
∴ ∠ACB + ∠AOB = 180°
⇒ ∠ACB + 150° = 180°
⇒ ∠ACB = 180° - 150° = 30°.
Hence, ∠ACB = 30°.
(iii) From figure,
∠ACD = ∠ACB + ∠BCD = 30° + 40° = 70°.
We know that,
Sum of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral = 180°.
In cyclic quadrilateral ABDC,
∴ ∠ABD + ∠ACD = 180°
⇒ ∠ABD + 70° = 180°
⇒ ∠ABD = 180° - 70° = 110°.
Hence, ∠ABD = 110°.
(iv) We know that,
Sum of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral = 180°.
In cyclic quadrilateral AOBD,
∴ ∠ADB + ∠AOB = 180°
⇒ ∠ADB + 150° = 180°
⇒ ∠ADB = 180° - 150° = 30°.
Hence, ∠ADB = 30°.
