Math Problem Statement
Find DB AD AC and BC arc if angle COB is 50° and CD and AB are diameters
Solution
Let's go through this problem step by step:
-
Understanding the given information:
- We have a circle with center .
- and are diameters of the circle.
- The angle (formed by diameters and ) is given as .
-
Finding arcs: Since and are diameters, they split the circle into four arcs.
-
Arc : This arc corresponds to the angle . Therefore, the measure of arc is also .
-
Arc : This is the arc on the opposite side of arc and completes the circle's half. Since is a diameter, the semicircle must sum up to . So, arc .
-
Arc : This arc is on the opposite semicircle from and has the same measure as arc . Thus, arc .
-
Arc : Similarly, since is a diameter, the opposite arc to in the same semicircle must measure the same as arc . So, arc .
