Answer:
Given:AB is the diameter of the circle with centre O.AP and AQ are two intersecting chords of the circle such that ∠PAB=∠QAB
Proof:In △AOL and △AOM
∠OLA=∠OMB (each 90
∘
)
OA=OA(common line)
∴∠OAL=∠OAM(∠PAB=∠QAB)
∴△AOL≅△AOM by AAS congruence criterion
⇒OL=OM by CPCT
⇒Chords AP and AQ are equidistant from centre O
⇒AP=AQ(chords which are equidistant from the centre are equal.)
