In the figures, PQ is a tangent to the circle at R and UT is parallel to PQ. if < TRQ = xo, find < URT in terms of x

A.

2xo

B.

(90 - x)o

C.

(90 + x)o

D.

(180 - 2x)o

Correct answer is D

< URT = < TRQ (angle alternate a tangent and a chord equal to angle in the alternate segment)

< RUT = xo

In \(\bigtriangleup\) URT

< RUT + < RUT + < UTR = 180o (sum of int. < s of \(\bigtriangleup\))

< URT + x + x = 180o

< URT = 180o - 2x

In the diagram, ST is parallel to UW, < WVT = xo, < VUT = yo, < RSV = 45o and < VTU = 20o. Calculate the value of y

A.

20

B.

25

C.

45

D.

65

Correct answer is B

xo + zo = 180o (sum of < on str. line)

45o + zo = 180o

zo = 180o - 45o

z = 135o

z + yo + 20o = 180o (sum of < s in \(\bigtriangleup\))

135o + yo + 20o = 180o

yo + 155o = 180o

yo + 180o - 155o

yo = 25o
