    In the given figure, \[AM\bot BC\] and AN is the bisector of \[\angle A.\] If \[\angle ABC=70{}^\circ \]and \[\angle ACB=20{}^\circ ,\] then \[\angle MAN\] is equal to

    A) \[20{}^\circ \]                          

    B) \[25{}^\circ \]

    C) \[15{}^\circ \]                          

    D) \[30{}^\circ \]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    In \[\Delta ABC,\]\[\angle B+\angle C+\angle A=180{}^\circ \]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\angle A=180{}^\circ -90{}^\circ =90{}^\circ \]
    But is bisector of \[\angle A.\]
    \[\therefore \]      \[\angle NAC=\angle NAB=45{}^\circ \]
    In \[\Delta ANC,\]
    \[\angle ANC=180{}^\circ -(20{}^\circ +\angle NAC)\]
    \[=180{}^\circ -(20{}^\circ +45{}^\circ )\]
                            \[=180{}^\circ -65{}^\circ =115{}^\circ \]
    \[\therefore \]      \[\angle ANM=180{}^\circ -115{}^\circ =65{}^\circ \]
    \[\angle MAN=180{}^\circ -(90{}^\circ +65{}^\circ )\]
                            \[=180{}^\circ -155{}^\circ =25{}^\circ \]
