Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a quadrilateral is cyclic if the sum of its opposite angles is 180.

Now, PQ and PR are tangent, this means that angle PQO=90 and angle PRO=90 Therefore the sum of opposite angle is 180 .So it is cyclic.

QORP is a cyclic quadrilateral.

Step-by-step explanation:

since, OR is the radius and PR is a tangent.

OR  ⊥ PR  

Therefore, \angle ORP = 90°

Similarly, OQ  is radius and PQ is tangent

then

\angle OQP = 90°

In quadrilateral ORPQ,

Sum of all interior angles = 360º

\angle ORP +\angle RPQ+\angle  PQO +\angle QOR = 360

90º + RPQ + 90º + QOR = 360º

\angle O +\angle P = 360-180

hence,

QORP is a cyclic quadrilateral.

note: In a cyclic quadrilateral, the sum of each pair of opposite angles is 180 degrees. If a quadrilateral has one pair of opposite angles that add to 180, then you know it is cyclic.
