In a triangle XYZ, C is circumcenter of this triangle, ∠Y = 50 degree and ∠Z =70 degree. What is the value of ∠YCZ ? |
120 degree 140 degree 150 degree 100 degree |
120 degree |
In triangle XYZ, \(\angle\)Y = \({50}^\circ\) \(\angle\)Z = \({70}^\circ\) Apply angle sum property, \(\angle\)X = 180 - (50 + 70) \(\angle\)X = \({60}^\circ\) Here C is the circumcentre \(\angle\)YCZ = 2 x \(\angle\)X \(\angle\)YCZ = 2 x 60 \(\angle\)YCZ = \({120}^\circ\) Therefore, the answer is \({120}^\circ\) |
