Circle Angles 670B92
1. **State the problem:** Given $m\angle N\hat{O} = 238^\circ$, find $m\angle P\hat{O}Q$ and $m\angle P\hat{Q}R$ based on the circle and points described.
2. **Recall circle angle properties:**
- The angle $m\angle N\hat{O}$ is a central angle measuring 238°.
- Central angles measure the arc they intercept.
- Angles around a point sum to 360°.
- Inscribed angles subtending the same arc are half the measure of the central angle.
3. **Find $m\angle P\hat{O}Q$:**
- Since $m\angle N\hat{O} = 238^\circ$, the remaining angle around point $O$ is $360^\circ - 238^\circ = 122^\circ$.
- $m\angle P\hat{O}Q$ is the angle adjacent to $m\angle N\hat{O}$, so $m\angle P\hat{O}Q = 122^\circ$.
4. **Find $m\angle P\hat{Q}R$:**
- $\angle P\hat{Q}R$ is an inscribed angle subtending the same arc as $\angle N\hat{O}$.
- Inscribed angle measure is half the measure of the intercepted arc.
- So, $m\angle P\hat{Q}R = \frac{1}{2} \times 238^\circ = 119^\circ$.
**Final answers:**
$$m\angle P\hat{O}Q = 122^\circ$$
$$m\angle P\hat{Q}R = 119^\circ$$
