Solution
(a) ∠NYB = 50°, ∠YNB = 20°.
In
∆YNB,
∠NYB + ∠YNB + ∠YBN = 180o
50o + 20o + ∠YBN = 180o
∠YBN + 70o = 180o
∠YBN = 180o – 70o = 110o
But ∠MAN = ∠YBN
(Angles in the same segment)
∠MAN = 110o
Major arc MN subtend reflex ∠MON at the
Centre and ∠MAN at the remaining part of
the choice.
Reflex ∠MAN at the remaining part of the circle
Reflex ∠MON = 2 ∠MAN = 2 × 110o =220o
(b) (i)
∠AOB + reflex ∠AOB = 360o
(Angles at the point)
140o + reflex ∠AOB = 360o
Reflex ∠AOB = 360o – 140o = 220o
Now major arc AB subtends ∠AOB + ∠OBC = 360o
50o + 110o + 140o + ∠OBC = 3600
300o + ∠OBC = 3600
∠300o + ∠OBC = 3600
∠OBC = 360o – 300o
∠OBC = 60o
(ii) In Quadrilateral .OACB
∠OAC + ∠ACB + ∠AOB + ∠OBC = 360o
50o + 110o + 140o + ∠OBC = 360o
300o + ∠OBC = 360o
∠OBC = 360o – 300o
∠OBC =60o
(iii) in ∆OAB,
OA = OB
(Radii of the same circle)
∠OAB + ∠OBA = 180o
2 ∠OAB = 180o – 140o = 40o
∠OAB = 40o/2 = 200
But ∠OBC = 60o
∠CBA = ∠OBC – ∠OBA
= 60o – 20o = 40o
