In the given figure,\[\Delta ODC\tilde{\ }\Delta OBA\]. \[\angle BOC=125{}^\circ \]and\[\angle CDO=70{}^\circ \], then the value of \[\angle OAB\]is |
A) \[70{}^\circ \]
B) \[125{}^\circ \]
C) \[65{}^\circ \]
D) \[55{}^\circ \]
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
\[\angle DOC+\angle COB=180{}^\circ\] [linear pair] |
\[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\angle DOC+125{}^\circ =180{}^\circ\] |
Hence, \[\angle DOC=180{}^\circ -125{}^\circ =180{}^\circ\] |
Again, \[\angle DCO+\angle CDO+\angle DOC=180{}^\circ\] |
[angles of a triangle] |
\[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\angle DCO+70{}^\circ +55{}^\circ =180{}^\circ\] |
Hence, \[\angle DCO=180{}^\circ -125{}^\circ =55{}^\circ\] ...(i) |
\[\because \Delta ODC\tilde{\ }\Delta OBA\] [given] |
\[\therefore \angle OAB=\angle OCD={{55}^{{}^\circ }}\] [from Eq. (i)] |
