The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the statements given in the context of the circle and the segments AB and CD. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Circle and Segments**: - We have a circle with center O. - The segments AB and CD are given lengths: AB = 3 and CD = 2. 2. **Analyzing Statement I**: - Statement I claims that angles ∠ABC and ∠BCD have equal measures. - These angles intercept the same arc BD. By the property of angles in a circle that intercept the same arc, we can conclude that ∠ABC = ∠BCD. - Therefore, Statement I is **True**. 3. **Analyzing Statement II**: - Statement II claims that segments AB and CD are parallel (AB || CD). - There is no information provided in the problem that indicates AB and CD are parallel. Thus, we cannot assume this to be true. - Therefore, Statement II is **False**. 4. **Analyzing Statement III**: - Statement III claims that 2(AE) = 3(CE). - To analyze this, we can use the property of similar triangles. - By the angle-angle similarity criterion, triangles ABE and CDE are similar because they share angles and have equal angles from the intercepted arcs. - From the similarity of triangles, we have: \[ \frac{AE}{CE} = \frac{AB}{CD} \] Substituting the known values: \[ \frac{AE}{CE} = \frac{3}{2} \] - Cross-multiplying gives us: \[ 2(AE) = 3(CE) \] - Therefore, Statement III is **True**. 5. **Conclusion**: - The only statements that must be true are I and III. - Thus, the correct answer is that statements I and III are true. ### Final Answer: - Statements I and III are true.
