These are a pair of supplementary cointerior
angles, so DC  AB.
In DABC and DCDA:
∠BAC = ∠ACD (alternate angles, BA  CD)
∠ACB = ∠CAD (alternate angles, BC  AD)
AC is a common side.
\ DABC ≡ DCDA (AAS)
\ ∠ABC = ∠CDA (matching angles in
congruent triangles)
Because DABC is acute-angled, ∠ABC < 90° and
thus ∠CDA < 90°.
If D is on the circle then ADCB would be a cyclic
quadrilateral and:
∠CDA = 180° - ∠ABC
(opposite angles of a
cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary)
This would only be possible if:
∠ABC = ∠CDA = 90°
\ D is not on the circle if DABC is acute-angled.
Exercise 1.6
1 ∠CBD = 25° (angle sum of DBCD)
\ ∠CAD = ∠CBD (both 25°)
These are a pair of equal angles subtended on the
same side of CD; hence A, B, C and D are concyclic.
\ ∠BAC = ∠BDC = 55°
(angles in the same
segment standing on BC)
∠BEA = 65° (∠CEA is a straight angle)
\ ∠ABD = 60° (angle sum of DABE)
3 (a) correct (a pair of equal angles are subtended
