In quadrilateral ABCD, with AB equal to AC, the angles are given as ∠ABD = 60°, ∠ADB = 70°, and ∠BDC = 40°. To find ∠DBC, the properties of isosceles triangles and the sum of angles in a triangle are applied. The calculations reveal that ∠DBC equals 70°. This conclusion is reached by analyzing the relationships between the angles and using the triangle sum theorem. The final answer is ∠DBC = 70°.

hint:
using the diagram:
construct a point E between $\overline{CD},and \,\, \angle ABE=70 ^o$
prove points C and E overlap

from previous diagram we have:
Points $A,B,E,D$ cocyclic, so $\overset{\frown}{AB}=\overset{\frown}{AE}=140^o$
we get $\overline{AB}=\overline{AE}=\overline{AC}$
and points C and E overlap (since points C,E,D colinear)
$\therefore \angle DBC=\angle DBE=10^o$
 
Thread 'Erroneously  finding discrepancy in transpose rule'
Obviously, there is something elementary I am missing here. To form the transpose of a matrix, one exchanges rows and columns, so the transpose of a scalar, considered as (or isomorphic to) a one-entry matrix, should stay the same, including if the scalar is a complex number. On the other hand, in the isomorphism between the complex plane and the real plane, a complex number a+bi corresponds to a matrix in the real plane; taking the transpose we get which then corresponds to a-bi...
