Quadrilateral OPQR is inscribed in circle N, as shown below. What is the measure of ∠PQR?
41 67 113 139
I want to know how to do this not just have the answer
Google it lol sorry😂
@derek_ortiz I already have and everyones saying different things
@bme89 do you know this?
hmmm, well 360 = x+17 + 2x+19 + 6x-5 + angle at P
Im still very confused, what does that mean?
The sum of the 4 angles will always equal 360 for a quadrilateral... Angle RQP is obtuse, so it cannot be either of the first 2 options.
okay im thinking 113
Is the angle of P given??
nope
now what?
Okay, so since it is inscribed within the circle, you can tell that angle PQR is larger than angle at P. If we calculate the angle at P based on the last 2 choices, we get 152 or 128... The 152 doesn't make sense because that would be larger than angle PQR. 128 at P would be less than the angle at PQR (139)
so then D?
Yes
that was right. THANK YOU!
You are most welcome! It was a tricky problem because it cannot be calculated directly...
