In the given figure, \(OA \cdot OB = OC \cdot OD\). Show that \(\angle A = \angle C\) and \(\angle B = \angle D\).

Proof:
 
Given: \(OA \cdot OB = OC \cdot OD\)
 
 \(\frac{OA}{OC}\ =\)ii \( \rightarrow (1) \)
 
Also \( \angle AOD\ =\) ∠i  (Vertically opposite angles are equal) \( \rightarrow (2) \)
 
From (\(1) \) and \( (2)\) ,
 
\( \triangle AOD \sim \)  Δi   [ similarity criterion ]
 
We know that "Corresponding angles of similar triangles are equal".
 
So, \(\angle A\ =\)∠i  and \(\angle D\ =\)∠i.
