∠PRQ = 120 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

chord = PQ

centre = O

tangent = P

QPT = 60 degree

solution

we know here PT is a tangent

so that here ∠OPT will be = 90 degree

so here sum of triangle is 180 degree

∠OPQ + ∠OQP + ∠ POQ = 180   .................1

here

∠OPQ = ∠OPT - ∠QPT

so put value

∠OPQ = 90 - 60 = 30

now put value in equation 1 we get ∠POQ

∠POQ = 180 - 30 - 30

∠POQ = 120 degree

then

∠ PRQ = \frac{1}{2} reflex angle  ∠POQ.

so here

∠PRQ will be

∠PRQ = \frac{1}{2}  ×  (360 - 120)  

∠PRQ = 120 degree
