The diagonals of rhombus ABCD intersect at E. Given that m∠CAD=20° and CE=4, find the m∠CDA.

Given :

The diagonals of rhombus ABCD intersect at E.

∠CAD = 20°.

To Find :

The angle ∠CDA.

Solution :

We know, diagonals of a rhombus bisects each other perpendicularly.

So, ∠DEA = 90°.

In triangle ΔEAD :

∠EAD + ∠AED + ∠EDA = 180°

20° + 90° + ∠EDA = 180°

∠EDA = 70°

Now, we know diagonal of rhombus also bisect the angle between two sides .

So, ∠CDA = 2∠EDA

∠CDA = 2×70°

∠CDA =140°

Therefore, ∠CDA is 140°.
