In the diagram, PQR is a circle with center O. IfOPQ = 48°, find the value of M.

  • A. 96\(^o\)
  • B. 90\(^o\)
  • C. 68\(^o\)
  • D. 42\(^o\)

Correct Answer: A. 96\(^o\)

Explanation

< O\(Q\)P = 48\(^o\) (base angles of isoceles \(\triangle\))

m = 48\(^o\) + 48\(^o\) = 96\(^o\) (exterior angle of a \(\triangle\))
