Quadrilateral OPQR is inscribed inside a circle as shown below. What is the measure of angle R? You must show all work and calculations to receive credit.

OpenStudy (ishipdestiel):

OpenStudy (shamim):

3y+8+y=180

OpenStudy (ishipdestiel):

Could you explain how you got that

OpenStudy (shamim):

Sum of 2 oposit angle=180 degree

OpenStudy (ishipdestiel):

I understand that, did you get the y from the opposite angle

OpenStudy (shamim):

If the quadrilateral is drawn within the circle

OpenStudy (shamim):

3y+8and y are oposit angle of quadrilateral

OpenStudy (ishipdestiel):

OKay so what do I do after that

OpenStudy (shamim):

y=?

OpenStudy (ishipdestiel):

OKay so what do I do after that

OpenStudy (shamim):

3y+8=?

OpenStudy (dayakar):

<R + <p =180 3y+8 +y =180

OpenStudy (dayakar):

now find y then <R = 3y+8

OpenStudy (ishipdestiel):

y=43

OpenStudy (ishipdestiel):

so I think R is 137

OpenStudy (ishipdestiel):

@dayakar am I right?

OpenStudy (dayakar):

yes, correct
