Sum

Solution

In the given figure, ∠BAC = 80°, ∠ABC = 30°, ∠ACE = x and ∠ECD = 90°

In ΔABC, we know that, exterior angle is equal to the sum of interior opposite angles.

∴ ∠ACD = ∠CAB + ∠ABC

⇒ ∠ACE + ∠ECD = 80° + 30°  ...[∵ ∠ACD = ∠ACE + ∠ECD]

⇒ ∠ACE + 90° = 110°  ...[∵ ∠ECD = 90°]

⇒ ∠ACE = 110° – 90° = 20°
