Challenges and Thrills in Pre-College Mathematics
Do you really need a hint? Try it first!
Draw a clear image of the given problem.
Translate ABCD along the vector AD SO A' and D are the same , and so that B' and C are the same
now , \(\angle COD +\angle CO'D\\=\angle COD+\angle A'O'D' \\=180 \)
so OCO'D is cyclic . therefore \(\angle OO'C =\angle ODC\)
Also , vector BC and OO' both equal AD so OBCO' is parallelogram . therefore
\(\angle OBC =\angle OO'C=\angle ODC \)
