Answer

Given,

△ABD ≅ △ACD

Since, corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal.

⇒ ∠DBA = ∠ACD = y (let)

⇒ ∠ADB = ∠ADC = x (let)

From figure,

⇒ ∠ADB + ∠ADC + ∠BDC = 360°

⇒ x + x + 110° = 360°

⇒ 2x = 360° - 110°

⇒ 2x = 250°

⇒ x = 250°2\dfrac{250°}{2}

⇒ x = 125°

⇒ ∠ADC = 125°

In △ADC,

By angle sum property of triangle,

⇒ ∠ADC + ∠ACD + ∠CAD = 180°

⇒ 125° + y + 30° = 180°

⇒ 155° + y = 180°

⇒ y = 180° - 155°

⇒ y = 25°

⇒ ∠DBA = y = 25°.

Hence, option 4 is the correct option.
