Determine with reasons the size of: 3.1 3.2 3.3 3.4 3.5 3.6 𝐷 2 𝐡 2 𝐸 2 𝐸 1 𝐢𝑂 𝐸𝐢 𝐡 𝐡

Solution

To determine the sizes of the angles or segments listed (3.1 to 3.6) and provide reasons, I will work through each one based on the geometric properties of the circle, given angles, and the layout from the image.

3.1 ∠D2\angle D_2

  • Analysis: D2D_2 typically denotes an angle at a specific point in the diagram. However, based on the image's geometry, it appears to be associated with point DD. Unfortunately, due to the small size of the image, more precise details about D2D_2 cannot be provided without further information.

  • Reasoning: If we assume D2D_2 refers to an angle formed by two intersecting lines at DD, then it would depend on the specific lines or circle arcs involved. More context is needed for exact reasoning.

3.2 ∠B2\angle B_2

  • Analysis: B2B_2 might represent another angle at point BB. The label might suggest it is related to the angle ∠AOB\angle AOB in the circle.

  • Reasoning: If B2B_2 refers to an angle formed by OBOB with some other line or arc, and given OBOB is the radius, this angle would typically relate to properties like central angle or inscribed angle, depending on the given geometry.

3.3 ∠E2\angle E_2

  • Analysis: Similar to D2D_2 and B2B_2, E2E_2 likely refers to an angle associated with point EE. Further context from the diagram is needed to determine its exact size.

  • Reasoning: E2E_2 could relate to an angle involving line segments or arcs passing through EE. The angle's size depends on the relationship of these segments or arcs with the circle.

3.4 ∠E1\angle E_1

  • Analysis: Similar to E2E_2, but this refers to a different angle at EE.

  • Reasoning: Without more detail, the exact size can't be determined, but it would follow the same geometric principles as E2E_2.

3.5 ∠COE\angle COE

  • Analysis: ∠COE\angle COE refers to the angle subtended by points CC and EE at the center OO of the circle.

  • Reasoning: Since OO is the center and OBOB is given as 6 cm, ∠COE\angle COE would be a central angle. The size of this angle depends on the length of the arc CECE on the circle. The central angle is directly proportional to the length of the arc it subtends. Without specific arc measurements or more details, an exact angle can't be determined.

3.6 ∠EC\angle EC

  • Analysis: ∠EC\angle EC likely refers to an angle involving points EE and CC, possibly at point CC.

  • Reasoning: If ECEC is the arc or segment, then the angle's size depends on where the vertex of the angle is located relative to the circle (center or circumference). If it's an inscribed angle, it would be half the size of the corresponding central angle.

Summary:

Due to the small size of the image and lack of precise details, a detailed determination of these angles and their exact sizes isn't possible without more context. However, each angle's size would depend on the geometric relationships in the diagram, such as central angles, inscribed angles, or angles between lines and tangents.
