In the diagram below, M, N, R are points on the circle centre O. ∠ORN = 48° and ∠RNM = 124°. Find ∠OMN.
- A. \(58^0\)
- B. \(64^0\)
- C. \(48^0\)
- D. \(76^0\)
Correct Answer: D. \(76^0\)
Explanation
Reflex ∠MOR = 2 × 124° = 248° (angle at the centre is twice the angle at the circumference)
∠MOR = 360° - 248° = 112° (sum of angle at a point is 360°)
∠OMN = 360° - (124°+ 48° + 112°) (sum of angles in a quadrilateral is 360°)
= 360° - 284°
∴ ∠OMN = 76°
