1. A, B and C are points on the circumference of a circle, centre O, and ∠BAC=115°. Calculate the number of degrees in ∠OBC.
I drew a diagram but could not come up with anything primarily because ∠BAC and centre O lie on opposite sides of chord BC (draw a quick diagram if you don't know what I mean).
2. ABCD is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle and AB = CD. Prove that AC = BD.
This is pretty simple I think, if AB = CD, then BC = DA (do I need to say why?). Then just use Pythag to prove the diagonals are equal.
