Circle Theorems

Each diagram shows a circle with centre O (drawn accurately from the given values, but do not measure from it). Find each marked angle and NAME the circle theorem you used: the reason earns marks at GCSE, not just the number. Higher tier.

  1. 1.
    A, B and P lie on a circle with centre O. Angle AOB = 86° (at the centre). Find angle APB, marked x, and give a reason.
