The value of ∠ OAB = 51°
Given: The diagonal of the rectangle ABCD intersects at O.
∠ COD = 78°
To Find: ∠ OAB
Solution:
- We know that in a rectangle, the intersection of the two diagonals at some point 'O', divides each diagonal into two equal parts.
Hence, in the rectangle ABCD,
OA = OB .... (1)
Also, it is said that ∠ COD = 78°
So, ∠ AOB = 78° [ Vertically opposite angles are equal ]
Now, since OA = OB, we can say that; [from (1)
∠ OAB = ∠OBA = x° [ Isosceles triangle ]
In Δ OAB,
∠ OAB + ∠OBA + ∠ AOB = 180° [Total angles in a triangle=180°]
⇒ x + x + 78° = 180°
⇒ 2x = 102°
⇒ x = 102°/2
= 51°
Hence, the value of ∠ OAB = 51°
