Answer»

Answer:

∠CAB = 40°.

Step-by-step EXPLANATION:

AB is the DIAMETER of the circle with center at O.

C is a POINT on the circle.

Given that ∠CBA = 50°.

Now, in ΔOCB, OC = OB [∵ Radius of the same circle]

∴ ∠OCB = ∠OBC = ∠ABC = ∠CBA = 50°.

∠AOC = ∠OCB + ∠OBC [∵ ∠AOC is exterior angle of ΔOCB]

∴ ∠AOC = 50° + 50° = 100°

And in ΔOCA, OC = OA [∵ Radius of the same circle]

∴ ∠OCA = ∠OAC = \frac{1}{2}(180° - ∠AOC) = \frac{1}{2}(180° - 100°) = 40°

∴ ∠CAB = ∠CAO = ∠OAC = 40°.
