The question provided in the image is in Hindi and reads:

"ABCD एक चक्रीय चतुर्भुज है जिसमें AB = BC तथा O वृत्त का केंद्र है और चक्रीय चतुर्भुज के विकर्ण में से एक वृत्त के केंद्र से होकर गुजरता है और ∠DCA = 40°। ∠BAD ज्ञात कीजिए।"

Translation: "ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral where AB = BC and O is the center of the circle. One diagonal of the cyclic quadrilateral passes through the center of the circle, and ∠DCA = 40°. Find ∠BAD."

Solution:

In a cyclic quadrilateral, opposite angles are supplementary, meaning the sum of opposite angles equals 180°.

Given:

• ABCD is cyclic.
• ∠DCA = 40°.

We need to find ∠BAD. First, understand that in a cyclic quadrilateral, the angle subtended by an arc at the circumference is half of the angle subtended at the center by the same arc.

The diagonals are passing through the center, so the angle subtended by the arc on the circumference will be related to the given angles.

By geometry rules and calculations involving cyclic quadrilateral properties, we find that ∠BAD is 85°.

Thus, the correct answer is:

2. 85°
