IN the diagram above, POQ is a diameter of the circle PQRS. If ∠PSR = 145°, find xo

A.

55°

B.

45°

C.

35°

D.

25°

Correct Answer: 55°

Explanation

∠PSQ = 90° (∠ in semi circle) ∠PSQ + ∠QSR = 145o 90 + ∠QSR = 145 ∠QSR = 145 - 90 ∠QSR = 55° BUt x° = ∠QSR (∠s in the same segment) ∴xo = 55°

∠PSQ = 90° (∠ in semi circle) ∠PSQ + ∠QSR = 145o 90 + ∠QSR = 145 ∠QSR = 145 - 90 ∠QSR = 55° BUt x° = ∠QSR (∠s in the same segment) ∴xo = 55°
