Figure drawn as per explained.
Now AB = BC hence angles corresponding will be equal hence \(\angle\) BAC= \(180^{\circ}\)-\(40^{\circ}\) =\(\frac{140^{\circ}}{2}\) = \(70^{\circ}\)
for triangle ADC \(180^{\circ}-40^{\circ}\) =\(\frac{40^{\circ}}{2}\)=\(20^{\circ}\)
thus angle ABD = \(70^{\circ}\)-\(20^{\circ}\) =\(50^{\circ}\)
Thus answer D
