Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

1. Angles AOM and MOC are supplementry angles. If m∠MOC = 135°, then

m∠AOM = 180° - 135° = 45°

2. OM − angle bisector of ∠AOB, then

m∠AOM = m∠MOB = 45°

3. Now

m∠BOC = m∠MOC - m∠MOB

m∠BOC = 135° - 45° = 90°

4. Since m∠BOC = 90°, BO is perpendicular to AC.

5. Consider isosceles triangle ABC (because AB ≅ BC). BO is the height drawn to the base, so it is an angle B bisector too, thus

∠ABO ≅ ∠CBO
