Question

a chord of a circle is equal to the radius of the circle find the angle subtended by the chord at the point of the minor arc​

Answer 1

Answer:

AB is equal to the radius of the circle.

In △OAB,

OA=OB=AB= radius of the circle.

Thus, △OAB is an equilateral triangle.

and ∠AOC=60°.

Also, ∠ACB=21∠AOB=21×60°=30°.

Since, ACBD is a cyclic quadrilateral,

∠ACB+∠ADB=180° ....[Opposite angles of cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary]

⇒∠ADB=180°−30°=150°.

Thus, angle subtend by the chord at a point on the minor arc and also at a point on the major arc are 150°and 30°, respectively.
