Let's look at the given info and mark it in the figure. First, we have PO = QO |dw:1480452390695:dw|

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Notice that we have two triangles, POA and QOB. So far we have two sides of the triangles are congruent, PO = BO.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Now we use the next piece of given info. Angles 1 and 2 are congruent. |dw:1480452509222:dw|

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

If angles 1 and 2 are congruent, what can you conclude about angles APO and BQO?

OpenStudy (taylor1048):

They are congruent

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Correct. We can mark them as congruent in the figure. |dw:1480452636250:dw|
