Q.In a circle with center \( O \), \( AB \) and \( CD \) are two equal-length chords. \( E \) is the midpoint of \( CD \), and \( \angle AOB = 70^\circ \). The value of angle \( \angle COE \) is: (a) 70° (b) 110° (c) 35° (d) 55°
Answer: C
Since equal-length chords subtend equal angles at the center, we have: \[ \angle COD = \angle AOB = 70^\circ \] Also, since \( E \) is the midpoint of \( CD \), we get: \[ \angle COE = \frac{1}{2} \angle COD = 35^\circ \] So, \( \angle COE = 35^\circ \).
