    Angle Chasing

    The act of angle chasing is fundamental in geometry, both computational and Olympiad. It is impor-
    tant to recognize when a configuration seems like it can be angle chased, and use this to your advantage.

    1 Problems
    Problems are ordered in terms of difficulty. Challenging problems are marked with a F.

    1. In the following problems, find the angles denoted by question marks.

    2. [CMIMC 2017, Own] Let ABC be a triangle with ∠BAC = 117◦ . The angle bisector of ∠ABC
    intersects side AC at D. Suppose 4ABD ∼ 4ACB. Compute the measure of ∠ABC, in degrees.
    3. [AMSP Team Contest 2015, Own] Suppose ABCD is a convex quadrilateral with ∠ABC = 144◦ ,
    ∠ADC = 105◦ , and AB = BD = DC. Compute ∠BCD − ∠BAD.
    4. [Math League HS 2013-2014/2009-2010/1994-1995] In a certain quadrilateral, the three shortest
    sides are congruent, and both diagonals are as long as the longest side. What is the degree measure
    of the largest angle of this quadrilateral?
    5. [AMC 10B 2009] The keystone arch is an ancient architectural feature. It is composed of congruent
    isosceles trapezoids fitted together along the non-parallel sides, as shown. The bottom sides of the
    two end trapezoids are horizontal. In an arch made with 9 trapezoids, let x be the angle measure
    in degrees of the larger interior angle of the trapezoid. What is x?

    6. [AHSME 1957] In triangle ABC, AC = CD and ∠CAB − ∠ABC = 30◦ . What is ∠BAD?

    7. [AHSME 1960] In this diagram AB and AC are the equal sides of


    an isosceles triangle ABC, in which is inscribed equilateral triangle
    DEF . Designate angle BF D by a, angle ADE by b, and angle F EC
    by c. Then:
    a+c a−c b−c
    (A) b = (B) b = (C) a =
    2 2 2
    b+c
    (D) a = (E) none of these

    8. [ARML 2006] If ABCDE is a regular pentagon and M N CD is a square (with M and N inside
    ABCDE), compute the value of m∠AM N − m∠EAM in degrees.

    9. [AIME 2001] In triangle ABC, angles A and B measure 60 degrees and 45 degrees, respectively.
    The bisector of angle A intersects BC at T , and AT = 24. Find the area of triangle ABC.

    10. [CMIMC 2017, Own] Cyclic quadrilateral ABCD satisfies ∠ABD = 70◦ , ∠ADB = 50◦ , and BC =
    CD. Suppose AB intersects CD at point P , while AD intersects BC at point Q. Compute
    ∠AP Q − ∠AQP .

    F 11. [BMO1 1995] Triangle ABC has a right angle at C. The internal bisectors of angles BAC and ABC
    meet BC and CA at P and Q respectively. The points M and N are the feet of the perpendiculars
    from P and Q to AB. Find angle M CN .

    F 12. [AMC 10B 2008] Quadrilateral ABCD has AB = BC = CD, ∠ABC = 70◦ , and ∠BCD = 170◦ .
    What is the degree measure of ∠BAD?

    F 13. [Naboj 2013] Inside an isosceles triangle ABC fulfilling AB = AC and ∠BAC = 99.4◦ , a point D
    is given such that AD = DB and ∠BAD = 19.7◦ . Compute ∠BDC.
