- ∠EBA,
- ∠BCD.

Solution
i. ∠AEB = 90°
(Angle in a semicircle is a right angle)
Therefore ∠EBA = 90° – ∠EAB
= 90° – 63°
= 27°
ii. 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°
