Q155
The side BC of a triangle ABC is extended to the point D. If ∠ACD = 132° and ∠B = 4/7 ∠A, then the measure of ∠A is equal to:
The side BC of a triangle ABC is extended to the point D. If ∠ACD = 132° and ∠B = ∠A, then the measure of ∠A is equal to:
A.
60°
B.
80°
C.
50°
D.
84°
AnswerAnswer: Option D
Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:

By exterior angle theorem
7x + 4x = 132°
11x = 132°
x = 12°
∠A = 7 × 12° = 84°
