Solution and Explanation
DOB is a straight line.
∴ \(\angle\)DOC + \(\angle\)COB = 180°
⇒ \(\angle\)DOC = 180° − 125° = 55°
In ∆DOC,
\(\angle\)DCO + \(\angle\)CDO + \(\angle\)DOC = 180° (The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180°)
⇒ \(\angle\)DCO + 70º + 55º = 180°
⇒ \(\angle\)DCO = 55°
It is given that ∆ODC ∼ ∆OBA.
∴ \(\angle\)OAB = \(\angle\)OCD [Corresponding angles are equal in similar triangles]
⇒ \(\angle\)OAB = 55°

Top Questions on Triangles
- Let ABC be an equilateral triangle. A new triangle is formed by joining the middle points of all sides of the triangle ABC and the same process is repeated infinitely many times. If P is the sum of perimeters and Q is be the sum of areas of all the triangles formed in this process, then:
- In a triangle $ABC$, $BC = 7$, $AC = 8$, $AB = \alpha \in \mathbb{N}$ and $\cos A = \frac{2}{3}$. If \[ 49 \cos(3C) + 42 = \frac{m}{n}, \] where $\gcd(m, n) = 1$, then $m + n$ is equal to ________.
- Let $P(\alpha, \beta, \gamma)$ be the image of the point $Q(3, -3, 1)$ in the line \[\frac{x - 0}{1} = \frac{y - 3}{1} = \frac{z - 1}{-1}\]and $R$ be the point $(2, 5, -1)$. If the area of the triangle $PQR$ is $\lambda$ and $\lambda^2 = 14K$, then $K$ is equal to:
- If P(6, 1) be the orthocentre of the triangle whose vertices are A(5, –2), B(8, 3) and C(h, k), then the point C lies on the circle.
- Consider a triangle \( \triangle ABC \) having the vertices \( A(1, 2) \), \( B(\alpha, \beta) \), and \( C(\gamma, \delta) \) and angles \( \angle ABC = \frac{\pi}{6} \) and \( \angle BAC = \frac{2\pi}{3} \). If the points \( B \) and \( C \) lie on the line \( y = x + 4 \), then \( \alpha^2 + \gamma^2 \) is equal to \( \dots \).
