Question

Two chords AB and AC of a circle with centre O are on the opposite sides of OA. Then ∠OAB = ∠OAC .

विकल्प

• True

• False

Answer 1

This statement is False.

Explanation:

We have,

In ΔOAB and ΔOAC,

OA = OA  ...[Common]

OB = OC  ...[Radii of a same circle]

Here, we are not able to show that either any angle or third side is equal and ΔOAB is not congruent to ΔOAC.

∴ ∠OAB ≠ ∠OAC
