In the figure, PQ and QR are chords of the circle PQR. QRS is a straight line and PR is equal to RS, < PSR is 20o. What is the size of <POQ.
A.
70o
B.
90o
C.
80o
D.
40o
E.
60o
Correct answer is C
Isosceles Triangle PSR:
RSP ≡ RPS → 20º
That is PRQ = 40º
POQ = 2 * 40 = 80º (Angle subtended by chord PQ at centre is twice angle subtended at circumference).
The size of POQ = 80º
