Answer:


\angle ACD = 130 ^\circ.

Step-by-step explanation:


\angle ABC and
\angle EBC are supplementary angles. Their sum should be
180^\circ.
\angle EBC = 120^\circ
\implies \angle ABC = 180^\circ - \angle EBC = 180^\circ - 120^\circ = 60^\circ.

The sum of the three angles in triangle
\triangle ABC:
(\angle ABC + \angle BAC + \angle ACB) should be equal to
180^\circ.


\angle ABC = 60^\circ and
\angle BAC = 70^\circ
\implies \angle ACB = 180^\circ - \angle ABC - \angle ACB = 180^\circ - 70^\circ - 60^\circ = 50^\circ.


\angle ACB and
\angle ACD form another pair of supplementary angles. Their sum should also be
180^\circ.
\angle ACB = 50^\circ
\implies \angle ACD = 180^\circ - \angle ACB = 180^\circ - 50^\circ = 130^\circ.
