Problem

In a circle with centre OO, two chords ABAB and CDCD are drawn. Answer the following questions based on this information. (i) Define (a) a chord of a circle and (b) a central angle of a circle. (ii) State the theorem connecting equal chords and the central angles they subtend. (iii) Explain, with reasons, why AB=CDAB=CD implies ∠AOB=∠COD\angle AOB = \angle COD and why the converse statement also holds.
