O is the center of a circle that passes through P,Q,R and S as shown in the figure SR is produced to X. If angle QRX= 133°, find x
Answers
Given:
A figure in which O is the center of a circle that passes through P, Q, R and S. SR is produced to X. Also, angle QRX= 133° and angle SPQ = 4x + 13°
To find:
The value of x.
Solution:
The value of x is 30°.
To answer this question, we will follow the following steps:
As given, we have,
angle QRX= 133°
So,
angle QRX + angle QRS = 180°
(as the sum of all angles on one side of the straight line is equal to 180°)
133° + angle QRS = 180°
angle QRS = 180°-133°
angle QRS = 47°
Now,
PQRS is a cyclic quadrilateral in which the sum of opposite angles is equal to 180°
Angle SPQ + Angle QRS = 180°
(4x + 13)° + 47° = 180°
4x + 60° = 180°
4x = 120°
x = 30°
Hence, the value of x is 30°.
Step-by-step explanation:
firstly, we know that angel QRS +QRX=180°[LINEAR PAIR]
