Solution

In APB and ECB,
ABP=EBC (Common angle)
PAB=CEB (Corresponding angle of parallel lines)
BPA=ECB (third angle)
Thus, APBECB by AAA
ABEB=BPBC
2EBEB=PBBC (E is the mid point of AB)
BP=2BC
BC+CP=2BC
CP=BC or PC=AD (Since BC = AD)
Now, In s AOD and COP,
AOD=COP (Vertically opposite angles)
AD=PC (Proved above)
ADO=PCO (Alternate angles for parallel lines BC and AD)
Thus, AODPOC (SAS rule)
Hence, OA=OP
or O is the mid point of AP.
