Angles in Circles
Angles within a circle are feasible to create with the help of different properties of the circle such as radii, tangents, and chords. The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to the circumference of the circle. A tangent is a line made p…
Arcs in Circles
A circular arc is the arc of a circle formed by two distinct points. It is a section or segment of the circumference of a circle. A straight line passing through the center connecting the two distinct ends of the arc is termed a semi-circular arc.

Answer to Problem 5RP

  WX⌢=125°

Explanation of Solution

Given information :

PZ and PY are tangent to inner circle. YZ⌢=110°

  Geometry For Enjoyment And Challenge, Chapter 10, Problem 5RP

Formula Used:

The angle subtend by an arc of a circle at its twice of the angle it subtends anywhere on the circumference.

Calculation :

  YZ=110°,   ∠YOZ=110°

Now, ∠YPZ=12×∠YOZ=55°

In quadrilateral, CPDT, we get

  ∠WPX+∠PXO+∠XOW+∠OWP=360°⇒   ∠XOW=360°−(90+90+55°)⇒   ∠XOW=125°⇒   WX=125°
