In a circle with centre `O ,` chords `A B\ a n d\ C D` intersect inside the circumference at `Edot` Prove that `/_A O C+\ /_B O D=2\ /_A E C`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Consider AC of the circle with center at O.
Now, arc AC subtends `angleAOC` at the center and `angleABC` at the remaining part of the circle.
So, `angleAOC=2angleABC`____1
Similarly, arc BD subtends `angleBOD` at the center and `angleBCD` at the remaining part of the circle.
`therefore` `angleBOD=2angleBCD`___2
Adding 1 and 2
`angleAOC+angleBOD=2(angleABC+angleBCD)`
`angleAOC+angleBOD=2angleAEC`
