4 stepsHere is the solution for question 14:
Part a
State the special name of the triangle AOB.
Since AB is a diameter and O is the center, points A, O, and B are collinear. OA and OB are both radii, so OA = OB. A triangle with two equal sides is isosceles. Since the points are collinear, it is a degenerate isosceles triangle.
Part b
Find the value of angle AOB.
Since AB is a diameter and O is the center, A, O, and B lie on a straight line. The angle on a straight line is .
Therefore, .
Part c
Find the value of angle AOC.
The angle subtended by an arc at the center is twice the angle subtended by the same arc at any point on the circumference.
Arc AC subtends at the center and at the circumference.
Given .
Part d
If the radius of the circle is 7cm, calculate the length of the arc AC.
Identify the given values.
Radius .
Angle subtended by arc AC at the center, .Use the formula for arc length.
The length of an arc is given by the formula:
where is the central angle in degrees.
Substitute the values into the formula.
