If O is the center of the circle and ∠ACB=40, then find ∠OAB.
⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀
In ΔOAB,
we have
OA=OB (radii of the same circle).
⠀⠀⠀
∴ΔOAB is isosceles.
⠀⠀⠀
∴∠OAB=∠OBA
⇒ ∠OAB+∠OBA=2∠OAB
⠀⠀⠀
So, ∠AOB+∠OAB+∠OBA
= ∠AOB+2∠OAB=180degree
(by angle sum property of triangles).
⠀⠀⠀
∴∠OAB= half (180 −∠AOB) .(eq. i)
⠀⠀⠀
Now ∠AOB = 2∠ACB = 2×40 = 80degree
(The angle subtended by a chord of a circle at the centre is double of that at the cicumference)
⠀⠀⠀
From (eq. i), we have
∠OAB = 1/2 × ( 180 - 80 )=50degree
⠀⠀⠀
Hence, ∠OAB = 50 degree
