उत्तर
72º
Explanation:
ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.
2∠A = 3∠C ...(1) (Given)
Now, ∠A + ∠C = 180º ...(Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary)
⇒ `3/2 ∠C + ∠C = 180^circ` ...[From (1)]
⇒ `(3/2 + 1) ∠C = 180^circ`
⇒ `5/2 ∠C = 180^circ`
⇒ `∠C = (2 xx 180^circ)/5`
⇒ ∠C = 72º
Thus, the measure of ∠C is 72º.
