Answer
(i) We know that,
Sum of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral is 180°.
⇒ ∠BCD + ∠DAB = 180°
⇒ ∠BCD + 105° = 180°
⇒ ∠BCD = 180° - 105° = 75°.
Hence, ∠BCD = 75°.
(ii) Sum of co-interior angles in a trapezium = 180°.
⇒ ∠ADC + ∠DAB = 180°
⇒ ∠ADC + 105° = 180°
⇒ ∠ADC = 180° - 105° = 75°.
Hence, ∠ADC = 75°.
(iii) We know that, the sum of angles in a quadrilateral is 360°
So,
⇒ ∠ADC + ∠DAB + ∠BCD + ∠ABC = 360°
⇒ 75° + 105° + 75° + ∠ABC = 360°
⇒ ∠ABC = 360° - 255°
⇒ ∠ABC = 105°.
Hence, ∠ABC = 105°.
