Correct Answer: $70^\circ$


Solution :
Given: $\angle ACD= 125^\circ$
$\therefore \angle ACB+\angle ACD=180^\circ$
⇒ $\angle ACB=180^\circ-\angle ACD=180^\circ-125^\circ=55^\circ$
Also, $AB = AC$
$\therefore \angle ACB = \angle ABC=55^\circ$
In $\triangle ABC$,
$\angle BAC+\angle ABC +\angle ACB=180^\circ$
⇒ $\angle BAC +55^\circ+55^\circ =180^\circ$
$\therefore\angle BAC =70^\circ$
Hence, the correct answer is $70^\circ$.
