The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of angle \( \angle BDC \) in the cyclic quadrilateral \( ABCD \) given the angles \( \angle XBC = 82^\circ \) and \( \angle ADB = 47^\circ \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the angles**: - We have \( \angle XBC = 82^\circ \). - We have \( \angle ADB = 47^\circ \). 2. **Find \( \angle ABC \)**: - Since \( AB \) is extended to point \( X \), the angles \( \angle CBX \) and \( \angle ABC \) are supplementary (they form a straight line). - Therefore, we can write: \[ \angle CBX + \angle ABC = 180^\circ \] - Substituting the known value: \[ 82^\circ + \angle ABC = 180^\circ \] - Solving for \( \angle ABC \): \[ \angle ABC = 180^\circ - 82^\circ = 98^\circ \] 3. **Use the property of cyclic quadrilaterals**: - In a cyclic quadrilateral, the opposite angles are supplementary. Therefore: \[ \angle ABC + \angle ADC = 180^\circ \] - Substituting \( \angle ABC = 98^\circ \): \[ 98^\circ + \angle ADC = 180^\circ \] - Solving for \( \angle ADC \): \[ \angle ADC = 180^\circ - 98^\circ = 82^\circ \] 4. **Find \( \angle BDC \)**: - We know that \( \angle BDC \) can be found using: \[ \angle BDC = \angle ADC - \angle ADB \] - Substituting the known values: \[ \angle BDC = 82^\circ - 47^\circ = 35^\circ \] ### Final Answer: Thus, the value of \( \angle BDC \) is \( 35^\circ \).
