Question:

In $\triangle ABC, \angle A = 66^\circ$. AB and AC are produced to points D and E, respectively. If the bisectors of angle CBD and angle BCE meet at the point O, then $\angle BOC$ is equal to:

Options:

66°

93°

57°

114°

Correct Answer:

57°

Explanation:

\(\angle\)BOC = 90 - \(\angle\)A/2

= \(\angle\)BOC = 90 - \(\frac{66}{2}\)

= \(\angle\)BOC = 90 - 33

= \(\angle\)BOC = \({57}^\circ\)

Therefore, \(\angle\)BOC is \({57}^\circ\).
