Answer» Let US consider a CIRCLE with center O and two equal chords of a circle AB and CD.We NEED to prove that ∠AOB=∠CODIn △ AOB and COD, we have AO=CO (RADIUS of the circle) BO=DO (Radius of the circle) AB=CD (Equal chords)By SAS criterion of congruence, we have △AOB≅△COD⇒∠AOB=∠COD HOPE it helps!!!! |
