O is the circumcentre of the \( \Large \triangle \) ABC. If \( \Large \angle BAC \) = \( \Large 50 ^{\circ} \), then \( \Large \angle OBC \) is equal to
A) \( \Large 30 ^{\circ} \)
B) \( \Large 60 ^{\circ} \)
C) \( \Large 40 ^{\circ} \)
D) \( \Large 50 ^{\circ} \)
Correct answer:
C) \( \Large 40 ^{\circ} \)
Description for Correct answer:
\( \Large \angle BOC = 2 \times 50 ^{\circ} = 100 ^{\circ} \)
In \( \Large \triangle OBC, OB = OC \)
=> \( \Large \angle OBC = \angle OCB \)
\( \Large \therefore Sum\ of\ three\ angles\ of\ a\ triangle = 180 ^{\circ} \)
=> \( \Large \angle OBC + \angle OCB + \angle BOC = 180 ^{\circ} \)
=> \( \Large 2 \angle OBC + 100 ^{\circ} = 180 ^{\circ} \)
-> \( \Large \angle OBC = \frac{80 ^{\circ} }{2} = 40 ^{\circ} \)
