Question
In the given figure, AB is a diameter of the circle. Chord ED is parallel to AB and ∠EAB = 63°. Calculate : ∠BCD.

Solution
AB || ED
Therefore ∠DEB = EBA = 27° (Alternate angles)
Therefore BCDE is a cyclic quadrilateral
Therefore ∠DEB + ∠BCD = 180°
[Pair of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary]
Therefore ∠BCD = 180° – 27° = 153°
