Question 10 O is the point of intersection of two chords 𝐴𝐡 and 𝐢𝐷 of a circle If βˆ π΅π‘‚πΆ=80^∘ and 𝑂𝐴=𝑂𝐷 then △𝑂𝐷𝐴 and △𝑂𝐡𝐢 are (A) equilateral and similar (B) isosceles and similar (C) isosceles but not similar (D) not similar Here, ∠ AOD = ∠ COB Also, ∠ ODA = ∠ OBC (Vertically opposite angles) (Angle in the same segment are equal) Now, In Ξ” ODA & Ξ” OBC ∠ AOD = ∠ COB ∠ ODA = ∠ OBC ∴ Ξ” ODA ~ Ξ” OBC Since triangles are similar, their sides are proportional 𝑂𝐴/𝑂𝐢=𝑂𝐷/𝑂𝐡=𝐴𝐷/𝐢𝐡 For 𝑢𝑨/𝑢π‘ͺ=𝑢𝑫/𝑢𝑩 Putting OD = OA (From (1)) (From (2)) (AA similarity) 𝑢𝑨/𝑢π‘ͺ=𝑢𝑨/𝑢𝑩 OC = OB Thus, in Ξ” OBC Two sides are equal, so it is isosceles Also, in Ξ” ODA Given OA = OD, two sides are equal, so it is isosceles Hence, Ξ” ODA & Ξ” OBC are Isosceles Similar So, the correct answer is (B)
