Q230
Two chords AB and CD of a circle with centre O, intersect each other at P. If ∠AOD = 100° and ∠BOC = 70°, then the value of ∠APC is
A.
80°
B.
75°
C.
85°
D.
95°
AnswerAnswer: Option D
Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
According to questionGiven:

∠AOD = 100°, ∠BOC = 70°
∴ ∠ACD = ∠ACP = = 50°
∴ The angle subtended at the centre is twice to that of angle subtended at the circumference by the same arc
∠BOC = 70°
∴ ∠BDC = ∠BAC = = 35°
In ΔAPC
∠PAC + ∠ACP + ∠APC = 180°
∠APC = 180° - 50° - 35°
∠APC = 95°
