sorry

200

can you explain me how, because i have other questions like this one

ok . angle pqr is 80. this angle is what is called an inscribed angle--an angle inside a circle whose rays run from a point ON the cricle to2 other point ON the circle. The arc that angle pqr' rays intercept is equal to 2 times the angle. So arc rsp =160. Now since there are 360 degrees of arc in any circle, arc pqr must be 360-160=200. OK?
