Let's break down and solve the problem based on the image you provided. Here's a summary of the given information and the questions:

Given:

• $BC = 10 \, \text{cm}$
• $\angle ABC = \angle ADC = 90^\circ$
• $\angle ACB = 45^\circ$
• $\angle CAD = 60^\circ$

Questions:

1. What is the measure of $\angle BAC$?
2. What is the length of $AB$?
3. What is the perimeter of triangle $ABC$?
4. What is the area of quadrilateral $ABCD$?

Solution Steps:

(a) Measure of $\angle BAC$

Using the fact that the sum of angles in a triangle is $180^\circ$, for triangle $ABC$: $\angle BAC = 180^\circ - \angle ABC - \angle ACB$ Substitute the given values: $\angle BAC = 180^\circ - 90^\circ - 45^\circ = 45^\circ$

So, $\angle BAC = 45^\circ$.

(b) Length of $AB$

We know that triangle $ABC$ is a right triangle with $\angle ACB = 45^\circ$. In a right triangle where one of the angles is $45^\circ$, the two legs are equal in length.

Since $BC = 10 \, \text{cm}$, we can use the following relationship for a $45^\circ-45^\circ-90^\circ$ triangle: $AB = BC = 10 \, \text{cm}$

Thus, the length of $AB$ is also $10 \, \text{cm}$.

(c) Perimeter of triangle $ABC$

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of all its sides. In triangle $ABC$, the sides are $AB = 10 \, \text{cm}$, $BC = 10 \, \text{cm}$, and the hypotenuse $AC$.

To find $AC$, use the Pythagorean theorem: $AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2 = 10^2 + 10^2 = 100 + 100 = 200$ $AC = \sqrt{200} = 10\sqrt{2} \, \text{cm} \approx 14.14 \, \text{cm}$

Now, the perimeter is: $\text{Perimeter} = AB + BC + AC = 10 + 10 + 14.14 = 34.14 \, \text{cm}$

(d) Area of quadrilateral $ABCD$

The quadrilateral $ABCD$ is composed of two triangles: $ABC$ and $ACD$.

1. Area of triangle $ABC$: $\text{Area of } ABC = \frac{1}{2} \times AB \times BC = \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 10 = 50 \, \text{cm}^2$

2. Area of triangle $ACD$: To find the area of triangle $ACD$, we need the height and base. The base $AD$ can be found using trigonometry. From $\angle CAD = 60^\circ$ and $\angle ADC = 90^\circ$, we can find the height $CD$.

   Since $\sin(60^\circ) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$, we can find $CD$ as: $\sin(60^\circ) = \frac{CD}{AC} \quad \Rightarrow \quad CD = AC \times \sin(60^\circ)$ $CD = 10\sqrt{2} \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = 10\sqrt{6} \, \text{cm}$

   For now, we'd calculate the area using approximation of the triangle formula. Shall I compute or clarify this?
