Step-by-step explanation:
Given: PQ is a tangent. AB is a diameter, ∠CAB=30
o
To find: ∠PCA=?
In ΔAOC,
∠CAB=∠OCA (Angles opposite to equal sides are equal)
So, ∠CAB=30
o
=∠OCA
Since OC⊥PQ (Tangent is perpendicular to the radius at point of contact)
∠PCO=90
o
∠OCA+∠PCA=90
o
30
o
+∠PCA=90
o
∠PCA=90
o
−30
o
Therefore, ∠PCA=60
