The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of angle \( \angle BCA \) in triangle \( \triangle ABC \) where \( \triangle ABC \) is inscribed in a semicircle with \( AB \) as the diameter and \( \angle BAC = 30^\circ \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Geometry**: - Since \( \triangle ABC \) is inscribed in a semicircle with \( AB \) as the diameter, we can use the property of angles in a semicircle. This property states that the angle opposite the diameter (in this case, \( \angle ACB \)) is a right angle (90 degrees). **Hint**: Recall that any triangle inscribed in a semicircle has one angle equal to 90 degrees when the opposite vertex lies on the semicircle. 2. **Identifying the Angles**: - We know \( \angle BAC = 30^\circ \) and \( \angle ACB = 90^\circ \). **Hint**: Write down the known angles of the triangle to keep track of what you have. 3. **Using the Triangle Angle Sum Property**: - The sum of the angles in any triangle is \( 180^\circ \). Therefore, we can write the equation: \[ \angle BAC + \angle ACB + \angle BCA = 180^\circ \] Substituting the known values: \[ 30^\circ + 90^\circ + \angle BCA = 180^\circ \] **Hint**: Remember the triangle angle sum property: \( \text{Sum of angles} = 180^\circ \). 4. **Solving for \( \angle BCA \)**: - Now we can simplify the equation: \[ 120^\circ + \angle BCA = 180^\circ \] Subtract \( 120^\circ \) from both sides: \[ \angle BCA = 180^\circ - 120^\circ = 60^\circ \] **Hint**: Isolate the variable to find the unknown angle. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the value of \( \angle BCA \) is \( 60^\circ \). ### Final Answer: \[ \angle BCA = 60^\circ \]
