Solution
It is given that
ABCD is cyclic quadrilateral and ` m angle A = 3 (m angle C ) `

We have to find `m angle A `
Since ABCD is cyclic quadrilateral and sum of opposite pair of cyclic quadrilateral is 180°.
So ` angle A + angle C = 180°`
And
`3angleC + angleC = 180°`
`4angleC = 180°`
`angleC = (180°)/4`
= 45°
Therefore
`angleA = 3 xx 45° `
= 135°
Hence `angle A = 135°`
