In the following figure (not to scale), at the centre O if the chord AB subtends double the angle that is subtended by chord CD and the angle $$\angle$$AEB = 2$$\angle$$AOB, then $$\angle$$COD is equal to:
Given, the chord AB subtends double the angle that is subtended by chord CD at the centre O
$$=$$> $$\angle$$AOB = 2$$\angle$$COD
Let $$\angle$$COD = a
$$=$$> $$\angle$$AOB = 2a
$$\angle$$AEB = 2$$\angle$$AOB
$$=$$> $$\angle$$AEB = 2(2a) = 4a
In quadrilateral OAEB,
$$\angle$$AOB + $$\angle$$OBE + $$\angle$$AEB + $$\angle$$OAE = 360$$^\circ$$
$$=$$> 2a + 90$$^\circ$$ + 4a + 90$$^\circ$$ = 360$$^\circ$$
$$=$$> 6a + 180$$^\circ$$ = 360$$^\circ$$
$$=$$> 6a = 180$$^\circ$$
$$=$$> a = 30$$^\circ$$
$$=$$> $$\angle$$COD = 30$$^\circ$$
Hence, the correct answer is Option A
