Q24
In a circle with centre O, BC is a chord. Point D and A are on the circle, on the opposite side of BC, such that ∠DBC = 28° and BD = DC. What is the measure of ∠BOC?
A.
98°
B.
84°
C.
112°
AnswerD.
96°
Answer: Option C
Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:

∠DBC = 28° (Given)
BD = DC, (Given)
∠BCD = 28°
So, ∠BDC = 180° - (28° + 28°) = 124°
∠BAC = 180° - 124° = 56°
(Cyclic )
∠BOC = 2 × ∠BAC = 56° × 2 = 112° Answer.
