In the given figure, AP and BP are tangents to a circle with centre O. If ∠APB = 62° then the measure of ∠AQB is: |
28° 118° 31° 59° |
59° |
In quadrilateral AOBP , ∠PAO + ∠PBO + ∠AOB + ∠APB = 360º 90º + 90º + ∠AOB + 62º = 360º ∠AOB = 118º We know that by same arc angle made at center is double to the angle made at circumference. ∠AQB = \(\frac{∠AOB}{2}\) = \(\frac{ 118º}{2}\) = 59º |
