In triangle DEF shown below, points A, B and C are taken on DE, DF and EF respectively such that EC = AC and CF = BC. ∠ D = 40∘ then what is ∠ACB in degrees?(CAT 2001)
Options:
A .  140∘
B .  70∘
C .  100∘
D .  None of these
Answer: Option C : C Option (c) The angle in question is p p+180-2x+180-2y=180∘ thus p-2(x+y)= 180∘……………..(1) also, BDX = x+y (exterior angle= sum of 2 interior angles not adjacent to it) x+y= 140∘………(2) using the 2 statements, p= 100∘
