Answer

(i) ∠TAD = ∠ABD = 28° [Angles in the alternate segment are equal]

Hence, ∠TAD = 28°.

(ii) ∠BAD = 90° [Angle in the semicircle]

Hence, ∠BAD = 90°.

(iii) ∠PAB = ∠ADB [Angles in the alternate segment]

By angle sum property of triangle :

⇒ ∠ADB + ∠ABD + ∠BAD = 180°

⇒ ∠ADB + 28° + 90° = 180°

⇒ ∠ADB = 180° - (28° + 90°)

⇒ ∠ADB = 62°

⇒ ∠PAB = 62°.

Hence, ∠PAB = 62°.

(iv) In ΔBCD, since BD is the diameter ∠BCD = 90°.

By angle sum property of triangle,

⇒ ∠CBD + ∠BCD + ∠BDC = 180°

⇒ ∠CBD + 90° + 52° = 180°

⇒ ∠CBD = 180° - 90° - 52°

⇒ ∠CBD = 38°.

Hence, ∠CBD = 38°.
