The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step-by-step, we will follow the reasoning laid out in the video transcript. ### Step 1: Understand the Given Information We are given that the lengths of arcs AB and BC are in the ratio of 3:2, and the angle AOB is 96 degrees. We need to find the angle ABC. ### Step 2: Relate the Angles to the Arcs Since the lengths of the arcs are in the ratio of 3:2, the angles subtended by these arcs at the center of the circle (angle AOB and angle BOC) will also be in the same ratio. Let: - Angle AOB = 3x - Angle BOC = 2x From the problem, we know that: \[ 3x = 96^\circ \] ### Step 3: Solve for x To find x, we can set up the equation: \[ x = \frac{96^\circ}{3} = 32^\circ \] ### Step 4: Find Angle BOC Now we can find angle BOC: \[ BOC = 2x = 2 \times 32^\circ = 64^\circ \] ### Step 5: Analyze Triangle OBC In triangle OBC, since OB = OC (both are radii of the circle), angles OBC and OCB are equal. Let: - Angle OBC = Angle OCB = y Using the angle sum property of triangles: \[ OBC + OCB + BOC = 180^\circ \] \[ y + y + 64^\circ = 180^\circ \] \[ 2y + 64^\circ = 180^\circ \] \[ 2y = 180^\circ - 64^\circ \] \[ 2y = 116^\circ \] \[ y = 58^\circ \] ### Step 6: Analyze Triangle OAB In triangle OAB, we know: - Angle AOB = 96 degrees - Angles OAB and OBA are equal (let's call them z). Using the angle sum property again: \[ OAB + OBA + AOB = 180^\circ \] \[ z + z + 96^\circ = 180^\circ \] \[ 2z + 96^\circ = 180^\circ \] \[ 2z = 180^\circ - 96^\circ \] \[ 2z = 84^\circ \] \[ z = 42^\circ \] ### Step 7: Find Angle ABC Finally, angle ABC can be found by adding angles OAB and OBC: \[ ABC = OAB + OBC = 42^\circ + 58^\circ = 100^\circ \] ### Conclusion Thus, the angle ABC is: \[ \text{Angle ABC} = 100^\circ \] ---
