Draw line OD ⊥ AB and line OE ⊥ BC. So now we have the following:
∠ABO = ∠CBO - given as OB is bisector of ∠ABC (A)
∠BDO = ∠BEO = 90° - by construction(A)
side BO = BO = common side ----- given(A)
Hence Δ DBO ≡ Δ EBO -- by AAS postulate
∴ OD = OE ---------- by CPCTC
∴ AB = BC --- Chords that are equidistant from the center of the circle are equal(or congruent)
∠ABO = ∠CBO - given as OB is bisector of ∠ABC (A)
∠BDO = ∠BEO = 90° - by construction(A)
side BO = BO = common side ----- given(A)
Hence Δ DBO ≡ Δ EBO -- by AAS postulate
∴ OD = OE ---------- by CPCTC
∴ AB = BC --- Chords that are equidistant from the center of the circle are equal(or congruent)

bo is the bisector of angleABC
angleABO=angleCBO
if we draw perpendiculars to side AB and BC from point O
let OP and OQ be perpendiculars to side AB and BC respectively
then in triangles OBP and OBQ
anglePBO=angleQBO (given)
angleOPB=angleOQB=90
sideOB=OB
then triangles OBP and OBQ are congruent (AAS property)
then OP=OQ by c.p.c.t.e
so AB=BC chords equidistant from the centre of the circle are equal
angleABO=angleCBO
