Answer:

m∠BAC = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that line BD passes through A, so ∠BAC and ∠CAD form a linear pair.  By the Linear Pair Postulate, ∠BAC and ∠CAD are supplementary angles, and by definition their measures add to 180°:

m∠BAC + m∠CAD = 180°


Since the diagram gives us that m∠CAD = 140°, we can substitute and solve:

Starting supplementary angles definition equation ...

m∠BAC + m∠CAD = 180°

Substituting the known value of m∠CAD ...

m∠BAC + (140°) = 180°

Subtracting 140° from both sides of the equation...

(m∠BAC + 140°) - 140° = (180°) - 140°

Simplifying/evaluating...

m∠BAC = 40°
