Homework Statement
Triangle ABC has been inscribed in the circle with center o.E is the midpoint of arc BC.DE is the diameter.E is joined to A, B and C.D is joined to A . If angle ABC =72 degrees and angle ACB = 48 degrees,
find angle DAC.
(I have attached the diagram given in book although its not a very good one)

The Attempt at a Solution
In this one what i did was,
i found angle BAC =(180-72-48)= 60 degrees
then i tried to subtend angle from the diameter to get 90 degree on the circumference but it did not help.
and i found the other angles like angle BEA=48 degrees and angle DEC= 72 degrees by the theorem the a chord extend equal angles on the circumference. But i can't get any further than this .Please help.
the answer given in my book is 60 degrees.
If I am going wrong somewhere please do let me know.
Thank you.
