In circle O, the measure of angle r equals 23. Find the measure of angle O. A.46 B.23 C.67 D.157
Do you have a picture?
one minute
|dw:1367199436924:dw| So this is what you know.
yeah
So basically, you know that this is circle O we're talking about. So O is the center. Because of this, we just need to find the measure of arc NQ and we'll have the measure of NQ, since ONQ is a central angle. We also can see that R is an inscribed angle on the circle, this we know R's corresponding arc's measure is 2 times its measure. (See below pic) |dw:1367199733357:dw| And luckily, NQ is that arc. So to find NQ, which will equal angle O, we just need to multiply R's measure by 2. So what is the measure of angle Q?
okay that would be 46
Yes. So choice A is correct.
okay thank you for explaining it to me
No problem :)
