In the diagram above, O is the center of the circle QOR is a diameter and ∠PSR is 37°. Find ∠PRQ

A.

37o

B.

53o

C.

65o

D.

127o

E.

147o

Correct answer is B

Construction: Join PQ.

Then < RSP = 37° = < RQP (angles on the same segment)

But < RPQ = 90° (angle in a semi-circle)

\(\therefore\) < PRQ = 180° - (90° + 37°)

 = 53°

In the diagram above, O is the center of the circle PQRS and ∠QPS = 36°. Find ∠QOS

A.

36o

B.

72o

C.

108o

D.

144o

E.

288o

Correct answer is B

< QOS = 2 < QPS (angle subtended at the centre)

\(\therefore\) < QOS = 2 x 36° = 72°
