in the figure point O is not displayed.  we assume O is the intersection of AD  and EC.

$${in}\:{the}\:{figure}\:{point}\:{O}\:{is}\:{not}\:{displayed}. \\ $$$${we}\:{assume}\:{O}\:{is}\:{the}\:{intersection}\:{of}\:{AD} \\ $$$${and}\:{EC}. \\ $$

α=180−30−40=110°  β=α=110°  γ=(β/2)=55°  δ+γ=180°  ⇒∠ABC=δ=180−γ=180−55=125°    we see it is even not necessary that  ED tangents the circle as shown.

$$\alpha=\mathrm{180}−\mathrm{30}−\mathrm{40}=\mathrm{110}° \\ $$$$\beta=\alpha=\mathrm{110}° \\ $$$$\gamma=\frac{\beta}{\mathrm{2}}=\mathrm{55}° \\ $$$$\delta+\gamma=\mathrm{180}° \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\angle{ABC}=\delta=\mathrm{180}−\gamma=\mathrm{180}−\mathrm{55}=\mathrm{125}° \\ $$$$ \\ $$$${we}\:{see}\:{it}\:{is}\:{even}\:{not}\:{necessary}\:{that} \\ $$$${ED}\:{tangents}\:{the}\:{circle}\:{as}\:{shown}. \\ $$

is this solution correct?  can you understand my solution?

α + 30 + 40  =  180       (angle in Δ)  α  =  β    (vertically opposite angle)  γ + δ  =  180  (opposite angle in cyclic quadrillaterals)    I will use your workings sir. I understand.
