In the diagram, O is the centre of the circle. If SOQ is a diameter and < PRS is 38o, what is the value of < PSQ
A
148o
B
104o
C
80o
D
52o
correct option: d
< SRP = < SQP = 38o (angle in the same segment of a circle are equal)

But < SPQ = 90o (angle in a semicircle)

also < PSQ + < SQP + < SPQ = 180o (angles in a triangle = 180o)

< PSQ + 38o + 90o = 190o

< PSQ = 128o = 180o

PSQ = 180o - 128o

PSQ = 52o
