प्रश्न
A tangent ST to a circle touches it at B. AB is a chord such that ∠ABT = 65°. Find ∠AOB, where “O” is the centre of the circle.
उत्तर
Given ∠ABT = 65°
∠OBT = 90° ...(TB is the tangent of the circle)
∠ABO = 90° – 65° = 25°
∠ABO + ∠BOA + ∠OAB = 180°
25° + x + 25° = 180° ...(Sum of the angles of a ∆)
OA and OB are the radius of the circle.
∴ ∠ABO = ∠BAO = 25°
x + 50 = 180°
x = 180° – 50° = 130°
∴ ∠BOA = 130°
