Answer:

(d) a = 30°

b = 120°

(e) a = 115°

Explanation:

(d)

∠EAC + ∠EDC = 180°

(55+a)° + 95° = 180°

a = (180-95-55)°

= 30°

ΔOAC = isosceles triangle

∠OAC = ∠OCA = 30°

∠AOC (minor) = 180° - 30° - 30°

= 120°

∠AOC (major) = 360° - 120°

= 240°

∠AOC (major) = 2 × ∠ABC

240° = 2 × b

b = 120°

(e)

2 × ∠ACD = 230°

∠ACD = 115°

∠ABD = ∠ACD

a = 115°
