1. Problem Description

ABCD is a circle with center O. AOB=80\angle AOB = 80^{\circ} and AB=BCAB = BC.
We need to calculate (i) ACB\angle ACB, (ii) ADC\angle ADC, and (iii) OAC\angle OAC.

2. Solution Steps

(i) To find ACB\angle ACB:
Since AB=BCAB = BC, triangle ABCABC is an isosceles triangle. Let BAC=BCA=x\angle BAC = \angle BCA = x. The angle at the center is twice the angle at the circumference. Therefore, AOB=2ACB\angle AOB = 2 \angle ACB. So, 80=2ACB80^{\circ} = 2 \angle ACB.
ACB=802\angle ACB = \frac{80}{2}
ACB=40\angle ACB = 40^{\circ}
(ii) To find ADC\angle ADC:
The sum of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral is 180180^{\circ}.
Therefore, ADC+ABC=180\angle ADC + \angle ABC = 180^{\circ}.
Since the sum of angles in triangle AOB is 180, OAB=OBA=(18080)/2=50\angle OAB = \angle OBA = (180 - 80)/2 = 50^{\circ}.
Since AB = BC, let angle BACBAC = angle BCA=xBCA = x. Also, ABCABC is a triangle. Then, the angle ABCABC is given by
ABC=ABO+OBC\angle ABC = \angle ABO + \angle OBC.
Since the angle subtended by the arc AC at the center is AOC\angle AOC, AOC=36080(360802y)=36080=280\angle AOC = 360 - 80 - (360 -80 -2*y) = 360 -80 = 280. where y is the angle BOC.
2x+ABC=1802x + \angle ABC = 180^{\circ}.
Also, AOC=2ADC\angle AOC = 2 \angle ADC.
Angle subtended at center is twice angle at circumference.
Since AB=BCAB=BC, angle BOC=angleAOB=80BOC = angle AOB = 80^{\circ}.
So, angle ABC=ABO+CBO=50+50=100ABC = \angle ABO + \angle CBO = 50 + 50 = 100. This is incorrect.
ABC+ADC=180\angle ABC + \angle ADC = 180^{\circ}.
AOB=80\angle AOB = 80^{\circ} and since AB=BCAB = BC, BOC=AOB=80\angle BOC = \angle AOB = 80^{\circ}.
AOC=AOB+BOC=80+80=160\angle AOC = \angle AOB + \angle BOC = 80 + 80 = 160^{\circ}.
ADC=12AOC=1602=80\angle ADC = \frac{1}{2} \angle AOC = \frac{160}{2} = 80^{\circ}.
(iii) To find OAC\angle OAC:
Since OAOA and OCOC are radii of the circle, triangle OACOAC is an isosceles triangle with OA=OCOA = OC.
Thus OAC=OCA\angle OAC = \angle OCA.
Since AOC=160\angle AOC = 160^{\circ}, then
OAC=OCA=1801602=202=10\angle OAC = \angle OCA = \frac{180 - 160}{2} = \frac{20}{2} = 10^{\circ}.

3. Final Answer

(i) ACB=40\angle ACB = 40^{\circ}
(ii) ADC=80\angle ADC = 80^{\circ}
(iii) OAC=10\angle OAC = 10^{\circ}
