Answer:

70°

Explanation:


  • In\:\triangle ABC,\:\measuredangle A =40\degree (Given)


  • Let \:\measuredangle ABC= x \: and \:\measuredangle ACB = y


  • 40\degree + x + y = 180\degree (sum of the angles of a triangle)


  • \rightarrow x + y = 180\degree-40\degree


  • \rightarrow\bold{\red{ x + y = 140\degree}}....(1)


  • \measuredangle CBD + x = 180\degree (angles in linear pair)


  • \rightarrow x = 180\degree-\measuredangle CBD....(2)


  • \measuredangle BCE + y = 180\degree (angles in linear pair)


  • \rightarrow y = 180\degree-\measuredangle BCE....(3)


  • \rightarrow x+y = 180\degree-\measuredangle CBD+180\degree-\measuredangle BCE (Adding equations 2 and 3)


  • \rightarrow 140\degree= 360\degree-(\measuredangle CBD+\measuredangle BCE)


  • \rightarrow\measuredangle CBD+\measuredangle BCE= 360\degree- 140\degree


  • \rightarrow\measuredangle CBD+\measuredangle BCE= 220\degree


  • \rightarrow(1)/(2)(\measuredangle CBD+\measuredangle BCE)= (1)/(2)*220\degree (Dividing throughout by 2)


  • \rightarrow(1)/(2)\measuredangle CBD+(1)/(2)\measuredangle BCE= 110\degree


  • \rightarrow \measuredangle CBO+\measuredangle BCO= 110\degree....(4) (BO and CO are bisectors of angle CBD and angle BCE respectively)


  • In\:\triangle OBC


  • \measuredangle CBO+\measuredangle BCO+\measuredangle BOC= 180\degree (Sum of the angles of a triangle)


  • \rightarrow 110\degree+\measuredangle BOC= 180\degree (From equation 4)


  • \rightarrow \measuredangle BOC= 180\degree-110\degree


  • \rightarrow \huge{\orange{\measuredangle BOC= 70\degree}}
