Math Problem Statement

Find the value of x in the following figure given that OC bisects angle BOD

Find the value of x in the following figure given that OC bisects angle BOD.

Solution

In the given figure:

  • You are provided with two intersecting lines forming several angles around point OO.
  • The angle AOB=110\angle AOB = 110^\circ, and we are asked to find the value of xx, which is the measure of EOD\angle EOD, knowing that line OCOC bisects BOD\angle BOD.

Let's proceed step by step:

  1. AOB\angle AOB and EOD\angle EOD are vertically opposite angles, meaning they are equal. Therefore, x=110x = 110^\circ

Thus, x=110x = 110^\circ.
