1. **Problem statement:** Given a circle with points A, B, C, D, E on the circumference and center O, with EOB a straight line, \(\angle AÔB = 105^\circ\) and \(\angle BÊC = 20^\circ\). Find the sizes of:
(a) \(\angle A\hat{B}C\)
(b) \(\angle A\hat{D}C\)
(c) \(\angle B\hat{C}D\)
(d) \(\angle D\hat{A}B\)
2. **Key formulas and rules:**
- The angle at the center \(\angle AÔB\) subtends the arc \(AB\).
- The angle at the circumference subtending the same arc is half the central angle: \(\angle A\hat{B}C = \frac{1}{2} \angle AÔB\).
- Angles on a straight line sum to \(180^\circ\).
- Opposite angles in cyclic quadrilaterals sum to \(180^\circ\).
3. **Step (a): Find \(\angle A\hat{B}C\)**
- \(\angle AÔB = 105^\circ\) is the central angle subtending arc \(AB\).
- The angle at the circumference subtending the same arc \(AB\) is half of \(105^\circ\):
$$\angle A\hat{B}C = \frac{1}{2} \times 105^\circ = 52.5^\circ$$
4. **Step (b): Find \(\angle A\hat{D}C\)**
- \(\angle BÊC = 20^\circ\) is an angle at point E on the circumference.
- Since EOB is a straight line, \(\angle BÊC\) subtends arc \(BC\).
- The angle \(\angle A\hat{D}C\) subtends the same arc \(BC\) but from point D.
- By the circle theorem, angles subtending the same arc are equal:
$$\angle A\hat{D}C = \angle BÊC = 20^\circ$$
5. **Step (c): Find \(\angle B\hat{C}D\)**
- Consider quadrilateral ABCD inscribed in the circle.
- Opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral sum to \(180^\circ\).
- \(\angle A\hat{B}C = 52.5^\circ\) (from step a) is opposite to \(\angle B\hat{C}D\).
So,
$$\angle B\hat{C}D = 180^\circ - 52.5^\circ = 127.5^\circ$$
6. **Step (d): Find \(\angle D\hat{A}B\)**
- Consider triangle ABD.
- \(\angle D\hat{A}B\) subtends arc \(DB\).
- Arc \(DB\) is the remaining arc after arcs \(AB\) and \(BC\).
- Central angle \(\angle EÔB = 180^\circ\) since EOB is a straight line.
- Arc \(AB\) corresponds to \(105^\circ\) (central angle), arc \(BC\) corresponds to \(2 \times 20^\circ = 40^\circ\) (since \(\angle BÊC = 20^\circ\) is half the arc).
- So arc \(DB = 360^\circ - (105^\circ + 40^\circ) = 215^\circ\).
- Angle at circumference subtending arc \(DB\) is half the arc:
$$\angle D\hat{A}B = \frac{1}{2} \times 215^\circ = 107.5^\circ$$
**Final answers:**
(a) \(\angle A\hat{B}C = 52.5^\circ\)
(b) \(\angle A\hat{D}C = 20^\circ\)
(c) \(\angle B\hat{C}D = 127.5^\circ\)
(d) \(\angle D\hat{A}B = 107.5^\circ\)
