In a ABC∆, the sides AB and AC are produced to P and Q respectively. The bisectors of ∠ PBC and ∠ QCB intersect at a point O. Prove that ∠ BOC =90 ° − 1/2 ∠A
ok let's understand the concept
Given :
- bisectors of angle PBC and angle QCB intersect at O.
To find :
- prove that ∠BOC = 90° - (1/2) (∠A)
Solution:
- ∠BAC = ∠A
Exterior angle = Sum of opposite interior angles
=> ∠ PBC = ∠C + ∠A
=> ∠ QCB = ∠B + ∠A
=> ∠CBO = (1/2)∠PBC = (1/2) (∠C + ∠A)
=> ∠BCO = (1/2)∠QCB = (1/2) (∠B + ∠A)
∠CBO + ∠BCO + ∠BOC = 180° Sum of angles 0 a triangle )
=> (1/2) (∠C + ∠A) + (1/2) (∠B + ∠A) + ∠BOC = 180°
=> (1/2) (∠C + ∠A + ∠B) + (1/2) (∠A) + ∠BOC = 180°
=> (1/2) (180°) + (1/2) (∠A) + ∠BOC = 180°
=> 90° + (1/2) (∠A) + ∠BOC = 180°
=> ∠BOC = 90° - (1/2) (∠A)
EXPLANATION.
In the adjoining figure,
ΔABC in which AB and AC are produced to P and Q.
Bisectors of ∠PBC and ∠QCB intersects at O.
As we know that,
To prove : ∠BOC = 90° - 1/2∠A.
BO is bisector of ∠CBP.
⇒ ∠CBO = ∠PBO = 1/2∠CBP.
CO is bisector of ∠BCQ.
⇒ ∠BCO = ∠QCO = 1/2∠BCQ.
∠CBP is an exterior angles of ΔABC.
⇒ ∠CBP = ∠A + ∠2.
⇒ 1/2∠CBP = 1/2(∠A + ∠2).
⇒ ∠CBO = 1/2(∠A + ∠2).
∠BCQ is an exterior angles of ΔABC.
⇒ ∠BCQ = ∠A + ∠1.
⇒ 1/2∠BCQ = 1/2(∠A + ∠1).
⇒ ∠BCO = 1/2(∠A + ∠1).
As we know that,
Sum of three angles of a triangle is = 180°.
⇒ ∠A + ∠1 + ∠2 = 180°.
In ΔOBC.
⇒ ∠BOC + ∠BCO + ∠CBO = 180°.
⇒ ∠BOC + 1/2(∠A + ∠1) + 1/2(∠A + ∠2) = 180°.
⇒ ∠BOC + 1/2(∠A + ∠A + ∠1 + ∠2) = 180°.
⇒ ∠BOC + 1/2(∠A + 180°) = 180°.
⇒ ∠BOC + ∠A/2 + 180°/2 = 180°.
⇒ ∠BOC + ∠A/2 + 90° = 180°.
⇒ ∠BOC = 180° - 90° - ∠A/2.
⇒ ∠BOC = 90° - ∠A/2.
Hence proved.
