Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that ΔKLM is the image of ΔBCD after rotation of 80 degree clockwise about the origin.

Rotation, reflection and translation are rigid transformation. It means the size and shape of image and preimage are same or we can say that the image and preimage are congruent to each other.

Since ΔKLM is rigid transformation of ΔBCD, therefore both triangles are congruent to each other.

\(\triangle KLM\cong \triangle BCD\)

The corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (CPCTC).

\(\angle BCD\cong \angle KLM\) (CPCTC)

The measure of angle KLM is 30°.

\(\angle BCD\cong 30^{\crc}\)

\(\angle BCD=30^{\crc}\)

Therefore option A is correct
