Question no 17 plz and quickly . that question which has 'o' if a center...... Etc or a option in 17the question
Answers
In triangles OMA and OMB
OM =OM (Common)
MA = MB (M is mid point of AB)
OA = OB (Radii of same circle)
Hence
triangle OMA is congruent to triangle OMB (By SSS Rule)
Therefore angle OMA = angle OMB (By CPCT)----equation 1
ALSO
angle OMA +angle OMB =180 degrees (linear pair)
2×angle OMA = 180 degrees (from equation 1)
angle OMA =90 degrees or OM is perpendicular to AB
Hope it helps
Mark my answer as brainliest.
given- a circle with center o ,
AB is a chord of a circle
AM=BM
∴OM bisects the chord AB
to prove- OM IS pERpendicular to AB
proof- in triangle AOM & BOM
OA = OB (radii of the same circle)
OM =OM (common side)
AM = BM (given)
∴ TRIANGLE AOM is congruent to BOM
∠AMO =∠ BMO
AMO+BMO=180 (LPA)
2AMO=180
∴ AMO=90
ie. OM is perpendicular to AB
