उत्तर
O is the centre of the circle.
chord PQ ≅ chord RS (Given)
⇒ arc PQ ≅ arc RS (Correspondidng arcs of congruent chords of a circle are congruent)
⇒ m(arc PQ) = m(arc RS)
⇒ m(arc PQ) = 80º [m(arc RS) = 80º]
(1)
m(arc PR) = ∠POR = 70º (Measure of a minor arc is the measure of its central angle)
(2)
m(arc PR) + m(arc PQ) + m(arc QS) + m(arc RS) = 360º
⇒ 70º + 80º + m(arc QS) + 80º = 360º
⇒ m(arc QS) = 360º − 230º = 130º
(3)
m(arc QSR) = m(arc QS) + m(arc RS) = 130º + 80º = 210º
