6. AB and BC are both tangents to the circle centre O (left).
If OA = 5 cm and AB = 12 cm calculate:
a) the size of angle OAB,
b) the length OB.
7. If OA is a radius of the circle (below) and PB the tangent to
the circle at A, calculate angle ABO.

Answer:

a) The size of angle OAB is 90°.

b) The length of O is 13cm.

7. Angle ABO is 28°.

Step-by-step explanation:

A) It is a right angle.

B) Since A is a right angle I can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

[tex]12^{2}+5^{2}=c^{2}[/tex]

144+ 25=[tex]c^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{169}=\sqrt x^{2}[/tex]

x=13

7) Since Angle OAB is a right angle and all interior angles of a shape equal 180° I added 90 and 62 and subtracted the sum by 180.

90+62=152

180-152=28
