To find out what ADB equals you need to subract 45 from 180.
After you do that it should equal 135 degrees.
So the answer is B.

Answer:

135°

Explanation:

The AC line is the diameter of the circle, and it is a straight line so the angle AC measures 180 °.

The image tells us that the angle BDC measures 45 °, so to find the angle AB we must subtract to the measure of the angle AC the measure of the BDC: agulo:

AC - BDC = 180 ° - 45 ° = 135 °
