    Question

    PQ is a diameter of a circle with centre O. The tangents at R meets PQ produced at A. If ∠RPQ = 27°, then measure of ∠RQP
    is:

    A.

    63°

    B.

    54°

    C.

    153°

    D.

    27°

    Correct option is A

    Given:
    PQ is diameter.
    ∠RPQ = 27°
    AR is tangent,
    Concept Used:
    Triangle in a circle made by the its diameter is right angle triangle.
    Solution:

    ∠PRQ = 90°
    In Right Angle triangle ∆PRQ
    ∠R+∠P+∠Q = 180°
    90° + 27° + ∠Q = 180°
    ∠Q = 180° - (90° + 27°)
    ∠Q = 180° - 117°
    ∠Q = 63°
