If PQ and PR are the two tangents to a circle with center O, and ∠QOR= $150^\circ$, then ∠QPR is equal to:
यदि PQ और PR केंद्र O वाले वृत्त की दो स्पर्श रेखाएँ हैं, और ∠QOR=$150^\circ$ है, तो ∠QPR किसके बराबर है:
Detailed Solution & Logic
$30^\circ$
Solution / समाधान:
PQ and PR are tangents, so
$OQ \perp PQ$ and $OR \perp PR$
In quadrilateral OQPR:
$\angle OQP = 90^\circ$ and $\angle ORP = 90^\circ$
Sum of all angles in quadrilateral = $360^\circ$
So,
$\angle QOR + \angle QPR + 90^\circ + 90^\circ = 360^\circ$
$\angle QOR + \angle QPR + 180^\circ = 360^\circ$
$\angle QPR = 360^\circ - 180^\circ - 150^\circ = 30^\circ$
Final Answer / अंतिम उत्तर: $30^\circ$
