Question

The diagonals of a rectangle ABCD meet at O, If ∠BOC = 44°, find ∠OAD.

Answer 1

The rectangle ABCD is given as:

We have,

(Linear pair)

Since, diagonals of a rectangle are equal and they bisect each other. Therefore, in , we have

(Angles opposite to equal sides are equal.)

Therefore,

Now,in , we have

Since, each angle of a rectangle is a right angle.

Therefore,

Thus,

Hence, the measure of is.
