Circle Theorems Q

This document contains 6 problems about circle theorems involving angles, arcs, chords, and tangents. Problem 1 involves finding two angles given one angle measure and that points are on a circle. Problem 2 involves finding three angle measures given one angle measure and that points are on a circle. Problem 3 involves finding two angle measures given one angle measure, that points are on a circle, and two tangents. Problem 4 involves calculating an angle measure given two chord angles and that points are on a circle. Problems 5 and 6 similarly involve using properties of circles, angles, chords, and tangents to calculate unknown angle measures.
