in the given figure, arc AB congruent to arc CD. prove that angle A = angle B.

Dear student,

Following is the answer:
given that arc AB = arc CD

Therefore, AOB = COD     [congruent arcs of circles make equal angles at the center]
AOB+BOC =COD + BOCAOC = BOD
In triangle AOC and triangle BOD,
OA = OB
​OC = OD
AOC = BOD
Hence,  triangle AOC  triangle BOD    (by SAS criteria)
Therefore, by CPCT we have A =  B      (by CPCT)
