Problem

Draw a circle with centre OO and points A,B,CA, B, C on its circumference. The measure of ∠ACB\angle ACB is 38∘38^{\circ}. The measure of the central angle ∠AOB\angle AOB is (5x−8)∘(5x - 8)^{\circ}. A fourth point DD is chosen on the circle such that the chord ADAD is equal to the chord ABAB. (i) Find the measure of arc ABAB. (ii) Using the result of part (i), calculate the value of xx and hence find ∠AOB\angle AOB. (iii) Prove that arcs ABAB and ADAD are equal. (iv) Hence determine the measure of ∠AOD\angle AOD.}],
