In the figure 'o' is the centre of the circle . IF AB=BC .Prove that angle AOB = angle BOC . If OA= AB=BC, then find the volume of Angle AOB and angle BOC ? Find out how many equilateral triangles can be drawn in a circle with length of its side is radius |

Answer» Given: AB and AC are two equal chords of a CIRCLE with centre O. OP⊥AB and OQ⊥AC. To prove: PB=QC Proof: OP⊥AB ⇒AM=MB .... (perpendicular from centre bisects the chord)....(i) SIMILARLY, AN=NC....(ii) But, AB=AC ⇒ 2 AB
= 2 AC
⇒MB=NC ...(iii) ( From (i) and (ii) ) Also, OP=OQ (Radii of the circle) and OM=ON (Equal chords are equidistant from the centre) ⇒OP−OM=OQ−ON ⇒MP=NQ ....(iv) (From figure) In ΔMPB and ΔNQC, we have ∠PMB=∠QNC (Each =90 ∘ ) MB=NC ( From (iii) ) MP=NQ ( From (iv) ) ∴ΔPMB≅ΔQNC (SAS) ⇒PB=QC (CPCT) Step-by-step explanation: please mark as brainliest |
