Answer» Answer: It is given that AB is a DIAMETER of a circle with centre O and DO || CB (i) We know that ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral It can be written as ∠BCD + ∠BAD = 180o By substituting the values 120o + ∠BAD = 180o On further calculation ∠BAD = 180o – 120o By subtraction ∠BAD = 60o (ii) We know that the angle in a semi-circle is RIGHT angle ∠BDA = 90o Consider △ ABD By using the angle sum property ∠BDA + ∠BAD + ∠ABD = 180o By substituting the values 90o + 60o + ∠ABD = 180o On further calculation ∠ABD = 180o – 90o – 60o By subtraction ∠ABD = 180o – 150o So we GET ∠ABD = 30O (iii) We know that OD = OA So we get ∠ODA = ∠OAD = ∠BAD = 60o From the figure we know that ∠ODB + ∠ODA = 90o By substituting the values ∠ODB + 60o = 90o On further calculation ∠ODB = 90o – 60o By subtraction ∠ODB = 30o It is given that DO || CB We know that the alternate angles are equal ∠CDB = ∠ODB = 30o (iv) From the figure we know that ∠ADC = ∠ADB + ∠CDB By substituting the values ∠ADC = 90o + 30o By addition ∠ADC = 120o Consider △ AOD By using the angle sum property ∠ODA + ∠OAD + ∠AOD = 180o By substituting the values 60o + 60o + ∠AOD = 180o On further calculation ∠AOD = 180o – 60o – 60o By subtraction ∠AOD = 180o – 120o So we get ∠AOD = 60o We know that all the angles of the △ AOD is 60o Therefore, it is proved that △ AOD is an equilateral triangle. |
