To solve the problem, we need to find the measure of angle \( \angle BOC \) in the context of an equilateral triangle \( ABC \) inscribed in a circle with center \( O \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Properties of the Equilateral Triangle**: - In an equilateral triangle, all sides are equal, and all angles are equal to \( 60^\circ \). - Therefore, \( \angle A = \angle B = \angle C = 60^\circ \). ...
