[GMAT math practice question]

The figure shows that line \(m\) is parallel to the line \(n\), and \(l\) is parallel to \(k\). Moreover, \(∠CBD=45^o, ∠FAE=80^o.\) What is \(∠BDC\)?

Attachment:

\(A. 40^o\)

\(B. 45^o\)

\(C. 50^o\)

\(D. 55^o\)

\(E. 60^o\)
Angle DAB=80 (vertically opposite angle)

Angle DAB + ABC = 180 ( Sum is supplementary)
Angle ABC = 100
Angle ABC = Angle ABD + DBC
Therefore, Angle ABD = 100- 45 = 55

Angle ABD = Angle BDC = 55 ( Alternate interior angles)

D is correct

Since lines \(m\) and \(n\) are parallel, we have \(<FBG=<FAE=80°\) and \(80°+<ABD+45°=180°.\)

Then we have \(125°+<ABD=180°\) and \(<ABD=55°\).

Since \(<ABD\) and \(<BDC\) are alternate interior angles, they are congruent and \(<BDC=55°.\)

Therefore, D is the answer.
Answer: D

\(C. 50^o\)

\(D. 55^o\)

\(E. 60^o\)

Angle BCD = Angle BAD = Angle FAE = 80

Let angle BDC be x

In triangle BCD
80 + 45 + x = 180
x = 55

IMO D
