Solution
It is given that, ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral such that AB || CD and `angle B = 70°`
Sum of pair of opposite angles of cyclic quadrilateral is 180°.
`angle B + angle D = 180°` (`angleB = 70° ` given)
So, `angle D = 110°`
Also AB || CD and BC transversal
So,
`angleB + angleC = 180°`
`angleC = 180 ° - 70° `
= 110°
Now
`angleA + angleC = 180°`
`angleA = 180 °- angleC `
= 180° - 110 °
= 70°
`angleD` = 180° - 70°
`angleD = 110°`
