Trigonometry

Hi

I have no idea what I've done wrong doing this question. The mark scheme has a slightly different answer to mine (112°), but it uses a different method (line AC + cosine rule) so I can't really pinpoint my mistake. See below for question and working

Thanks

Yes, you've assumed BAD is also 90 ...try drawing another diagram and find AC first.
