उत्तर

Given:

AB and BC are two chords of a circle with centre O such that ∠ABO = ∠ACO.

Join AO, BO, and CO.

In triangles ABO and ACO:

AO is common.

∠ABO = ∠ACO    ... [given]

OB = OC

By the RHS (Right angle-Hypotenuse-Side) congruence criterion, ΔABO ≅ ΔACO.

Therefore, by CPCT (Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles), AB = AC.

Hence proved: AB equals AC.
