Alternate Segment Theorem :- The Angle b/w a chord and a tangent through one of the end points of the chord is equal to the angle in the alternate segment.
Proof :-
From image we have :-
→ AB = A Chord .
→ AF = Tangent to the circle.
→ O = centre .
→ OB = OA = radius of circle.
→ ∠BAF = Let x° .
To Prove :-
→ ∠ACB = x° ..
Solution :-
in ∆AOB,
→ OB = OA = radius .
So,
→ ∠OAB = ∠OBA . (Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal.)
Than,
→ ∠OAB + ∠OBA + ∠AOB = 180° (Angle sum Property.)
→ ∠OAB + ∠OAB + ∠AOB = 180°
→ 2∠OAB + ∠AOB = 180°
→ ∠AOB = (180° - 2∠OAB) ----------- Eqn.(1)
______________
Now,
→ AF = Tangent to the circle.
So,
→ ∠OAF = 90° (A tangent to a circle forms a right angle with the circle's radius).
So,
→ x° = ∠OAF - ∠OAB
→ x° = (90° - ∠OAB)
→ ∠OAB = (90° - x) -------------- Eqn.(2) .
______________
Putting value of Eqn.(2) in Eqn.(1) Now,
→ ∠AOB = 180° - 2(90° - x)
→ ∠AOB = 180° - 180° + 2x
→ ∠AOB = 2x .
Now, we know That, The angle subtended by an arc at the center of a circle is double that of the angle that the arc subtends at any other given point on the circle.
Therefore, if ,
→ ∠AOB = 2x (At centre.)
Than,
→ ∠ACB = (2x°/2) = x° (At circumference.)
Hence,
→ ∠ACB = x° . (Proved).

Extra :-
→ ∠CAE = ∠CBA . (By Alternate Segment Theorem.)

▪ Explain and Prove the alternate segment theorem.
For any circle, the angle between a tangent and a chord through the point of contact of the tangent is equal to the alternate segment.
▪ In the attached figure ,
¤ O is the centre of the circle
¤ AB is a chord of the circle
¤ OA and OB are the radii of the circle
¤ XY is a tangent passing through point A on the circle.
▪ Let ∠ BAY be x°.....
☆ ∠BCA = ∠BAY = x°
▪ OA = OB ( radius of circle )
then,
▪ ∠OAB = ∠OBA
( angles opposite to equal sides are also equal)
using,
ANGLE SUM PROPERTY of triangle....
∠AOB + ∠OAB + ∠OBA = 180°
=》 ∠AOB + ∠OAB + ∠OAB = 180°
=》 ∠AOB + 2∠OAB = 180°
=》 ∠AOB = (180° - 2∠OAB )------> eqn (1)
___________________________________
∠OAY = 90°
( since , XY is a tangent to the circle, it forms right angle with the radius of the circle)
∠OAY = ∠OAB + ∠BAY = 90°
=》 ∠OAB + x° = 90°
=》 ∠OAB = ( 90° - x° )-------> eqn (2)
substituting the value of ∠OAB from equation (2) in equation (1)......
∠AOB = ( 180° - 2∠OAB)
=》 ∠AOB = ( 180° - 2 ( 90° - x° ))
=》 ∠AOB = 180° - 180° + 2x°
=》 ∠AOB = 2x°
since,
The angle subtended by an arc at the centre of a circle is double of the angle that the arc subtends at any given point in the circle.....
thus,
∠AOB = 2 ∠BCA
=》 ∠BCA = ∠AOB/ 2
=》 ∠BCA = 2x°/2 = x°
therefore,
∠BAY = ∠BCA = x°
.......Hence, PROVED
