What can you tell me about angle PRS

OpenStudy (aripotta):

it would have to be 55 degrees, wouldn't it?

OpenStudy (aripotta):

idk how to justify that though

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

notice how angles PRS and SQP sweep out (or subtend) the same arc

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

namely arc PS

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

angles PRS and SQP are inscribed angles which subtend the same arc, which means that they must be congruent

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you can just say "inscribed angle theorem" to mean that two inscribed angles that subtend the same arc are congruent

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

in #6, it's all angles in a triangle add to 180 degrees

OpenStudy (aripotta):

ok, thanks so much!

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yw

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

and trivial side note, you're not simplifying for #7, you're solving for SPR, but you have the right idea

OpenStudy (aripotta):

oh so i should put solve for SPR? or keep it as simplify?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I would write "solve for SPR"

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you can break it down even further, but I would write that just to save time/space

OpenStudy (aripotta):

ok, thanks :)
