A, B and C lie on a circle, centre O, with diameter AC.
TAM and TBN are tangents to the circle and angle ATO = 34°.
Using values and geometrical reasons, complete these statements to show that CB is parallel to OT.
In triangles AOT and BOT, OT is common.
Angle OAT = angle OBT = 90° because ....................................................................................

Triangle AOT is congruent to triangle BOT because of congruence criterion ...........................
Angle AOT = angle BOT = 56° because angles in a triangle add up to 180°.
Angle BOC = ...................... ° because ......................................................................................
Angle OBC = ...................... ° because ......................................................................................
