Step-by-step explanation:
Answer
Given, PA=PB, and ∠PAB=50
o
To prove: Measure of ∠AOB
Proof: PA=PB (∵ given)
∠PBA=∠PAB (∵ angle opposite sides are equal)
∴∠PBA=50
o
.
In ΔPAB
∠PBA+∠PAB+∠APB=180
o
(∵ A.S.P)
∠APB=180
o
−100
o
∠APB=80
o
∠AOB+∠APB=180
o
(∴ supplementary angles)
∠AOB=180
o
−80
o
∠AOB=100
o
∴ Hence proved.

Answer:
Given, PA=PB, and ∠PAB=50 degree
To prove: Measure of ∠AOB
Proof: PA=PB (∵ given)
∠PBA=∠PAB (∵ angle opposite sides are equal)
∴∠PBA=50 degree
In ΔPAB
∠PBA+∠PAB+∠APB=180 degree
(∵ A.S.P)
∠APB=180 degree −100 degree
∠APB=80 degree
∠AOB+∠APB=180 degree
(∴ supplementary angles)
∠AOB=180 degree −80 degree
∠AOB=100 degree
∴ Hence proved.
