Question -

In a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD, if ∠A − ∠C = 60°, prove that the smaller of two is 60°



Answer -

It is given that ∠A – ∠C = 60° and ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.
 
We have to prove that smaller of two is 60°
Since ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral
So ∠A + ∠C = 180°                 (Sum of opposite pair of angles of cyclic quadrilateral is 180°)   ..… (1)
And,
∠A – ∠C = 60°               (Given)            ..… (2)
Adding equation (1) and (2) we have
 
So, ∠C = 60°
Hence, smaller of two is 60°.
