Math Problem Statement
If p q and r are points on a circle with centre o. If angle pqr is 100 find angle por
Solution
In a circle, if points , , and lie on the circle with center , and if , we can find using the property that the angle subtended at the center by an arc is twice the angle subtended at any point on the circumference.
Given:
Since is the angle at the center subtended by the same arc , it will be twice . Therefore:
Thus,
Would you like further details or explanations on any related concepts?
Here are five related questions to expand your understanding:
- What is the relationship between angles at the center and on the circumference for the same arc in any circle?
- How do inscribed angles in the same circle compare if they subtend the same arc?
- If were different, how would it affect ?
- Can you explain why the angle at the center is always twice the angle at the circumference for the same arc?
- What would happen if were not the center of the circle?
Tip: In circle geometry, remember that the angle subtended by an arc at the center is always twice the angle subtended by the same arc at any point on the circle's circumference.
