In the diagram, PS and RS are tangents to the circle centre O,

  • A. 110°
  • B. 135°
  • C. 165°
  • D. 225°

Correct Answer: C. 165°

Explanation

In the diagram,

Thus, m = 2 x 55\(^o\) (is a bisector of obtuse

m = 110\(^o\)

n = \(\frac{1}{2}\) x 110\(^o\) (angle at centre = 2 x angle at circum)

n = 55\(^o\)

= 165\(^o\)
