Question 11.
PQ and RS are two equal chords of a circle with centre O such that ∠POQ = 70°, then ∠ORS = ……….
(a) 60°
(b) 70°
(c) 55°
(d) 80°
Solution:
(c) 55°
Hint:
Samacheer Kalvi 9th Maths Guide Chapter 4 Geometry Ex 4.7 5
∠POQ = 70° (Vertically opposite Angle)
∠ORS and ∠OSR are equal. (OR = OS radius of the circle)
∠ORS + ∠OSR + ∠ROS = 180°
x° + x° + 70° = 180°
2x + 70° = 180°
2x = 180° – 70° = 110°
