    My construction was a bit simpler. I joined B to C with a line segment and C to D with a line segment, thus forming two congruent isosceles triangles CDE and CBD. The angles at E and B then each had to be half the angle at D.

  • @wtspman
    @wtspman Před 2 lety +12

    Alternative step 4: construct a line segment connecting points C and D. Triangles CBD and CDE will be congruent based on SSS => angle CBD = angle CED = x.
    Quadrilateral CBDE: Interior angles of a quadrilateral add up to 360° => 140° + 110° + 2x = 360°, 2x = 110° => x = 55°

    Different solution -
    Measure of angle EAB = 70. Hence, measure of Central Angle ECB = 140.
    ∆CED is congruent to ∆DCB (by S-S-S congruence theorem).
    Hence measure of angle ECD = measure of angle DCB = 70
    Therefore measure of angle CED = x = measure of angle CDE = 55 (because ∆CED is isosceles and measure of angle ECD = 70).

    Angle A=70º ⇒ Angle D=180º - 70º=110º.
    CE=CD=CB and ED=BD ⇒ the triangles CED and CDB are isosceles and equal ⇒ The
    angle D=2X ⇒ X=110º/2=55º

    Once angle EDB was established to be 110 degrees, by joining radius CB, a symmetrical figure CBDE is produced, made up of 2 congruent triangles, and line CD would divide angle EDB into equal halves of 55 degrees.
    Since CD is also a radius equal to CE, triangle CDE is isosceles, so angle CDE = angle X = 55 degrees.

    Basit bir yol olarak:
    1. BDE yayı 70.2=140 derecedir.
    2. ED yayı BD yayına eşit olduğu için ikisi de 70'er derece olur.
    3. Çemberin merkezi yani C'den D'ye bir doğru çizersek yeni oluşan ECD açısı 70 derece olur.
    4. EC ve CD yarıçap olduğu için birbirine eşittir. Yani CDE açısı da x olur.
    5. 2x=180-70=110
    x=55.
    Ben olsam böyle çözerdim. Daha pratik.

    Since CE = CD = CB = radius, therefore the 2 isosceles triangles (CDE and CDB) are congruent (SSS rule). Also opposite angles (A and D) are supplementary in cyclic quadrilateral.
    So, D = 180 - 70 = 110. Since angle at the center of equal chords (DE and DB) are equal (let's say Z). So x + x = 180 - Z = (110 - x) + (110 - x). So, 4x = 220. So x = 55.

    I have solve the sum mr Locke system.
    angle ECB=140degree
    therefore ang CED+ang CBD=360-(110+140)= 110 degree.
    hence answer as triangle ECB and CBD are congruent to each other as S-S-S.

  • @johankotze42
    @johankotze42 Před 2 lety

    By drawing CB and CD, you have two equal isosceles triangles CED and CDB.
    Angles CED = CDE = CDB = CBD = x
    Therefore ECD = DCB = ECB/2
    ECB = 140 for stated reason,
    therefore ECD = DCB = 70
    ECD + CED +EDC = 180
    70 + 2*CED = 180
    CED = (180 - 70)/2 = 55

    Let's try this one before watching the video:
    - Draw a straight line from E to B => α + δ = 180° => δ = 180° - α => δ = 180° - 70° => δ = 110° (opposite angles on both sides of a chord add up to 180°)
    - Draw a straight line from C to D
    - Since ED = BD => CD = bisector of the angle BDE
    - Angle CDE = 55°
    - CD = CE (= r)
    - Triangle CDE is an isosceles triangle.
    - Angle CDE = Angle CED
    - Angle CED (x) = 55°

  • @philipkudrna5643
    @philipkudrna5643 Před 2 lety

    Before watching: angle ECB („at the center“) is double of angle EAB („at the circumference“) thus 140. The two triangles ECD and DCB are congruent (same circle sector length as one side and the other sides are the radius), thus they are also isosceles triangles. Since ECB is 140 degrees, ECD is half, thus equally 70 degrees. x half the remainder to 180, thus 110/2 or 55 degrees (due to the fact that the triangle is isosceles). So c is simply 55 degrees.
    Now I watch!
    After watching: ok I had the right solution, but I think my way was a bit more „direct“! 😀
