O ABC is a tetrahedron such that OA$=$OB$=$CO$=$K and $\angle AOB=\angle BOC =\angle COA =\theta$.

  1. $\left[\dfrac{\pi}{3}, \dfrac{2\pi}{3}\right]$
  2. $\left[0, \dfrac{2\pi}{3}\right]$
  3. $\left[\dfrac{\pi}{4}, \dfrac{\pi}{3}\right]$
  4. $\left[0, \dfrac{\pi}{2}\right]$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

In a tetrahedron OABC with OA=OB=OC=K and equal face angles theta at O, the dihedral angles and face angles are constrained by the geometry of the solid. The range of the face angle theta for such a tetrahedron is [pi/3, 2pi/3].
