A circle centered at O O O has radius 1 1 1 and contains the point A A A . The segment A B AB A B is tangent to the circle at A A A and ∠ A O B = θ \angle AOB = \theta ∠ A O B = θ . If point C C C lies on O A ‾ \overline{OA} O A and B C ‾ \overline{BC} B C bisects ∠ A B O \angle ABO ∠ A B O , then O C = OC = O C =
