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 = ∴ ∠CAB = ∠CAO = ∠OAC = 40°. |
