Answer:
Hey mete here is ur Answer...
Step-by-step explanation:
∠APB and ∠QPR will be equal as they are vertically opposite angles.
∴∠APB=∠QPR=35∘
Also, we know angle made by a chord at point on the circle is half of the angle made at the center of the circle.
∴∠APB= 1/2 ∠AOB (Here, AB is the chord)
⇒∠AOB=2∠APB=2∗35=70∘
∴∠AOB=70∘

For the given circle having center O and angle QPR °, the measure of angle AOB is °.
Explanation:
- We know that two lines intersecting at a point make equal pairs of vertically opposite angles.
- Hence, here lines AR and BQ intersect at point P and angles QPR and APB are vertically opposite angles,
- Now it is given that AP and BP are the chords of the circle.
- Hence, APB is the angle subtended by the chord AB on the circumference of the circle.
- Now we know that the angle subtended by a chord at the center is double the angle subtended by the same chord at the circumference of the circle.
- Hence,
- Therefore the measure of angle AOB is °.
