Answer:

In the above figure ,

∠QOR=2×∠QMR=100

0

......(1) (Angle made by chord on the major segment is half of angle made by it on centre .)

In △QOR,OQ=OR→∠OQR=∠ORQ........(2)

Using (1) , (2) and angle sum property of triangle in △QOR

∠OQR=∠ORQ=40

0

.................(3)

Now ∠MQP is the exterior angle of △MQR

So, ∠MQP=50

0

+40

0

+40

0

=130
