1. Given the angles in the triangle △ABC with point P inside it, we have:
∠BAP=10∘,∠ABP=20∘,∠PCA=30∘,∠PAC=40∘
2. First, we find ∠APB:
∠APB=180∘−∠BAP−∠ABP=180∘−10∘−20∘=150∘
3. Next, we find ∠BPC:
∠BPC=180∘−∠APB−∠PCA=180∘−150∘−30∘=100∘
4. Using the Law of Sines in △ABP:
sin20∘AP=sin10∘BP=sin150∘c
Since sin150∘=sin30∘=21, we have:
sin150∘c=2c
Therefore:
AP=2csin20∘,BP=2csin10∘
5. Using the Law of Sines in △APC:
sin30∘AP=sin40∘CP
Since sin30∘=21, we have:
21AP=2AP=sin40∘CP
Therefore:
CP=2APsin40∘=4csin20∘sin40∘
Using the double-angle identity sin2θ=2sinθcosθ, we get:
CP=c(2cos20∘−1)
6. Let ∠PBC=x. Using the Law of Sines in △BPC:
sinxCP=sin(80∘−x)BP
Substituting the values:
sinxc(2cos20∘−1)=sin(80∘−x)2csin10∘
Simplifying, we get:
sinx2cos20∘−1=sin(80∘−x)2sin10∘
7. Using the identity sin(80∘−x)=cos(10∘+x), we have:
sinx2cos20∘−1=cos(10∘+x)2sin10∘
8. After simplification and factorization, we get:
2cos20∘cos(10∘+x)=2sin10∘sinx+cos(10∘+x)=cos(x−10∘)
9. Solving the equation cos(30∘+x)=0:
30∘+x=90∘⟹x=60∘
The final answer is 60∘
