Answer:
120 degrees the sum of all angle is 720 degrees In the above
Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
we know that
m∠PQS+m∠SQR=m∠PQR ----> equation A (by Addition Angle Postulate)
we have that
m∠PQR=90° ----> equation B given problem (because is a right angle)
substitute equation B in equation A
m∠PQS+m∠SQR=90°
Remember that
Two angles re complementary is their sum is equal to 90 degrees (Definition of complementary angles)
therefore
m∠PQS and m∠SQR are complementary angles
If we draw in OX, OY, OZ we have two congruent right triangles, right angles at the tangent points.
We know XOZ is 132 degrees, which is the meaning of the arc measure
So YOX is half that, 66 degrees.
That leaves 180 - 90 - 66 = 24 degrees for OYX
Angle Y aka XYZ is double that, 48 degrees.
