Step-by-step explanation:
Construction : Join DT
In triangle OAP and OTP
OA = OT (Radii of same circle)
PA = PT (Equal tangents)
OP = OC (common side)
Therefore triangle OAP is congruent to triangle OTP.
Angle OAP = angle POT (CPCT). Let this angle be x
Similarly triangle OBQ is congruent to triangle OTQ.
angle TOQ = angle BOQ (CPCT) Let this angle be y.
Since AB is the diameter,
x+x+y+y = 180°
x+y = 90°
Therefore angle POQ = 90°
Hope this helps Mark as branliest pls
