In the figure, if $ABC$ is an equilateral triangle. Find $\angle BDC$ and $\angle BEC$.
"
Given:
$ABC$ is an equilateral triangle.
To do:
We have to find $\angle BDC$ and $\angle BEC$.
Solution:
$\triangle ABC$ is an equilateral triangle.
This implies,
$\angle A = 60^o$
$\angle BAC$ and $\angle BDC$ are in the same segment.
Therefore,
$\angle BAC = \angle BDC = 60^o$
$BECD$ is a cyclic quadrilateral.
This implies,
$\angle BDC + \angle BEC = 180^o$
$60^o + \angle BEC = 180^o$
$\angle BEC = 180^o-60^o= 120^o$
Hence $\angle BDC = 60^o$ and $\angle BEC = 120^o$.
