ECZ 2021 · GCE Paper 1 — Circle Theorems
In the diagram below, A, B, C and D are points on the circumference of a circle, centre O. Angle DAB = 36°, BC = CD and EBF is a tangent to the circle at B. Find angle CBF.
- A. 144°
- B. 72°
- C. 36°
- D. 18°
Verified working — step 1
BC = CD is given for a reason: it makes triangle BCD isosceles, and its base angle is what the tangent-chord theorem needs.The full step-by-step working and final answer are included with Premium — checked against ECZ marking standards.
