In the adjoining figure, chords AC and BD of a circle with centre O, intersect at right angles at E. If `/_ OAB = 25^(@)`, calculate `/_ EBC`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`/_ EBC = 25^(@)`
`OA = OB implies /_ OBA = /_ OAB = 25^(@)`
`:. /_ OAB + /_ OBA + /_ AOB = 180^(@) implies /_ AOB = 130^(@)`
`:. /_ ADB = (1)/(2) /_ AOB = 65^(@) implies /_ ECB = 65^(@) [ /_ s` in the same segement].
Now, `/_EBC + /_ BEC + /_ ECB = 180^(@)`
`implies /_ EBC + 90^(@) + 65^(@) = 180^(@) implies /_ EBC = 25^(@)`
