join oB andOC  △OAB and OAC   1)OB=OC (radius)                     2)∠ABO=∠ACO=90^o   3)OA common  so  △OAB congurent △OAC  so  ∠OAB=∠OAC  AB=AC  let BC interzect OA at point P    in  △APB and △APC  AB=AC  AP common  ∠OAB=∠OAC  so △APB congurent △APC  so  ∠APB=∠APC=α  α+α=180^o   α=90^o  hence BC⊥OA  BP=PC
