@Guy Fox , you have to mention that the answer should be in degree. Also B F E G is a square. B F = F E = E G = B G can be a parallelogram.
Let the radius of the semicircle be 1, then we note that
B

and
B

G

G

. By
sine rule
, we have
B G sin ∠ B D G 2 1 sin ∠ B D G sin ∠ B D G ⟹ ∠ B D G = B D sin ∠ D G B = 1 sin 4 5 ∘ = 2 1 = 2 1 = 3 0 ∘
⟹ ∠ D B A = ∠ B D G + ∠ D G B = 3 0 ∘ + 4 5 ∘ = 7 5 ∘ and ∠ D A C = 2 1 8 0 ∘ − ∠ D B A = 2 1 8 0 ∘ − 7 5 ∘ = 5 2 . 5 ∘ .
