    Question

    In △ABC, BD ⟂ AC at D and ∠DBC = 22°. E is a point on BC such that ∠CAE = 36°. What is the measure of ∠AEB?

    A.

    103°

    B.

    102°

    C.

    101°

    D.

    104°

    Correct option is D

    Given:

    In △ABC, BD ⟂ AC at D and ∠DBC = 22°. E is a point on BC such that ∠CAE = 36°.

    Formula Used:
    Sum of angles in a △ = 180°.

    Solution:

    In △BDC, since BD ⟂ AC:
    ∠BDC = 90°.

    We have, ∠DBC = 22°.

    Then, ∠BDC + ∠DCB + ∠DBC = 180°
    90° + ∠DCB + 22° = 180°
    ∠DCB = 180° − 112°
    ∠DCB = 68°.

    In △AEC, ∠CAE = 36°.

    Then, ∠AEB = ∠CAE + ∠DCB
    ∠AEB = 36° + 68°
    ∠AEB = 104°.
