उत्तर

AB is the common chord in both the congruent circles.

∴ ∠APB = ∠AQB

In ΔBPQ,

∠APB = ∠AQB

∴ BQ = BP (Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle)

In the figure, `square`ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral. Seg AB is a diameter. If ∠ ADC = 120˚, complete the following activity to find measure of ∠ BAC.

`square` ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.
∴ ∠ ADC + ∠ ABC = 180°
∴ 120˚ + ∠ ABC = 180°
∴ ∠ ABC = ______
But ∠ ACB = ______  .......(angle in semicircle)

In Δ ABC,
∠ BAC + ∠ ACB + ∠ ABC = 180°
∴ ∠BAC + ______ = 180°
∴ ∠ BAC = ______
