Prove that The sum of either pair of opposite angles of a cyclic
quadrilateral is 180º.

Hi!
Here is the proof of the statement provided by you.
 
Consider a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD inscribed a circle with centre at O
In order to prove this theorem, join OB and OD
 
⇒∠BAD + ∠BCD = 180° ... (1)
 
Similarly, by joining OA and OC it can be proved that
∠ABC + ∠ADC = 180° ... (2)
 
Equation (1) and equation (2) shows that the sum of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180 degree.
 
Hope! This will help you.
Cheers!

by reason

⇒BAD + BCD = 180� ... (1) Similarly, by joining OA and OC it can be proved that ABC + ADC = 180� ... (2) Equation (1) and equation (2) shows that the sum of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180 degree. Hope! This will help you.

Theorem: The sum of either pair of apposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180. OR The opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementry. Since PQRS is a cyclic quadrilateral. PSR + PQR - 180 120 + PQR = 180PQR = 60 Since PRQ is the angle in a semi-circle.PRQ = 90 Now, in PQR, we haveQPR + PRQ + PQR = 180QPR+ 90+ 60 = 180QPR = 30PLEASE THUMBS UP
