In a triangle $\Delta ABC$ let $D$ be the midpoint of $BC$. If angle $\angle ADB=45^{\circ}$ and angle $\angle ACD=30^{\circ}$ then find angle $\angle BAD$.
NOW this is a special case do we need a construction.

Let's denote $\angle BAD$ as $\alpha$. We have that $\angle ADB=180-(45+\alpha)$. If $\angle ADB=45$ and $\angle ACD=30$, then $\angle ADC=180-45$ and $\angle CDA=180-30-(180-45)=15$. Now, from the sine theorem:
$$ \frac{|CD|}{\sin(15)}=\frac{|AC|}{\sin(180-45)}$$ $$ \frac{|AC|}{\sin(180-(45+\alpha))}=\frac{|BD|}{\sin(\alpha)}=\frac{|CD|}{\sin(\alpha)}$$
From the first one, we have that:
$$ |AC|=\frac{\sin(180-45)}{\sin(15)}|CD|$$
Plugging this into the second one gives us:
$$ \frac{\sin(180-45)}{\sin(15)}|CD|\frac{1}{\sin(180-(45+\alpha))}=\frac{|CD|}{\sin(\alpha)} $$ $$ \frac{\sin(15)\sin(180-45)}{\sin(180-(45+\alpha))}=\frac{1}{\sin(\alpha)} $$ $$ \sin(\alpha)=\frac{\sin(180-(45+\alpha))}{\sin(15)\sin(180-45)}=\frac{\sin(45+\alpha)}{\sin(15)\sin(180-45)} $$
Can you take it from here?
