Knowns:
O is the center of the isosceles triangle with sides AB and AC equal,
Angle ABC = 40
Consequently, Angle ACB = 40
Unknowns:
Angle OAB = 1/2 of angle BAC
Angle BAC = 180 - sum of angles ABC and ACB (since, sum of angles of a triangle = 180
= 180 - (40+40)
= 100
Finally,
Angle OAB = 1/2 of angle BAC
= 1/2 of 100
= 50.
The answer is 50.
