In the arrowhead figure, ∠A = 50°, ∠ABD = 20° and ∠ACD = 30°. Find ∠BDC (the non-reflex angle, marked ?).

Class 9Exterior Angle of a TriangleGeometry — Lines and Angles
  • A260°
  • B100°
  • C130°
  • D80°

Step-by-Step Solution

Join AD and produce it past D. Using the exterior angle theorem in both triangles ABD and ACD: ∠BDC = ∠ABD + ∠A + ∠ACD = 20° + 50° + 30° = 100°.
Answer: B) 100°
