Question

In a circle with the centre of o the measure of a minor arc is 70 what is the measure of major arc PYQ *​

Answer 1

$\huge\colorbox{red}{♛ᴀɴsᴡᴇʀ♛࿐}$

Suppose PQ is the minor arc and then m(arc PQ) = 110°.

_____________________

We know that, measure of major arc = 360°

_____________________

measure of corresponding minor arc = m(arc PYQ) = 360° – m(arc PQ)

_____________________

= 360° - 110°

= 250°

_____________________

Hence, the measure of major arc PYQ is = 250 °
