उत्तर
Given:
side AB || side DC
AB = 20,
DC = 6,
OB = 15
In △COD and △AOB
∠COD = ∠AOB (Vertically opposite angles)
∠CDO= ∠ABO (Alternate angles, CD || BA and BD is a transversal line)
By AA test of similarity
△COD ∼ △AOB
∴ `(CD)/(AB) = (OD)/(OB)` (Corresponding sides are proportional)
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{6}{20} = \frac{OD}{15}\]
\[ \Rightarrow OD = 4 . 5\]
