If m∠NOP = 24° and m∠NOQ = 110°, what is m∠POQ?

monitta

Correct answer for the above question is - option B. 86°

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given:

∠NOP = 24°

∠NOQ = 110°

∠NOP and ∠POQ are adjacent angles

To Find:

∠POQ = ?

Solution:

Hereby, we can say that ∠POQ lies between line OQ and ON as given (∠NOP and ∠POQ are adjacent angles )

∠NOQ - ∠NOP = ∠POQ

∠POQ = 110° - 24°

<u>∠POQ = 86°</u>

Angle POQ is 86°

Thus we can conclude option B as correct answer.
