The figure, not drawn to scale, O is the centre of the circle and UZ // VY // WX. Find
- ∠TOW
- ∠TYO
(a)
∠ZOV
= 180° - 94°
= 86° (Interior angles, UZ//VO)
∠OWY = ∠OYW = 29° (Isosceles triangle)
∠VOW
= 29° + 29°
= 58° (Exterior angle of a triangle)
∠TOW
= 86° + 58°
= 144°
(b)
∠YOW
= 180° - 29° -29°
= 122° (Isosceles triangle)
∠TOY
= 360° - 144° - 122°
= 94° (Angles at a point)
TO = OY = Radius
∠TYO
= (180° - 94°) ÷ 2
= 86° ÷ 2
= 43° (Isosceles triangle)
Answer(s): (a) 144°; (b) 43°
