(a)  In the diagram, MN || ST, NP || QT and < STQ = 70°. Find x.

(b)  In the diagram above, AC is a straight line, |BC| = |BD|, \(\stackrel\frown{BCD} = 50°\) and \(\stackrel\frown{BAD} = 55°\). Find \(\stackrel\frown{BDA}\).

Explanation

(a)  \(< QTR = < TRP = 70°\) (alternate angle)

\(< MNR = < TRP = 70°\) (alternate angle; MN || ST)

\(< MNR + < PNM = 180°\)

\(70° + < PNM = 180° \implies < PNM = 110°\)

\(\therefore x = 110°\)

(b) \(< BDC = < BCD = 50°\) (BD = BC)

\(\therefore \Delta BDC = isosceles\)

\(< ABD = 2(50°) = 100°\) (exterior angle)

\(55° + < BDA + 100° = 180°\)

\(< BDA = 180° - 155° = 25°\)
