Answer:

The statement that is not true is;

c) m∠ABO = m∠ODC

Explanation:

With the assumption that the lengths AO, and OD are equal, we have that in ΔABO and ΔOCD, the following sides are corresponding sides;

Segment AO on ΔABO is a corresponding side to segment OD on ΔOCD

Vertices B and C on ΔABO and ΔOCD are corresponding vertices

Therefore;

Segments AB and OB on ΔABO are corresponding sides to segments OC and OD on ΔOCD respectively

Therefore, ∠ABO on ΔABO is the corresponding angle to ∠OCD on ΔOCD

Given that ΔABO ≅ ΔOCD, we have that ∠ABO ≅ ∠OCD

Therefore;

m∠ABO = m∠OCD by definition of congruency
