QQuestion
What is the relation between the opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral?
✓Answer
They are supplementary (sum = 180°).
Explanation:
Each pair of opposite angles subtends arcs that together make the full circle (360°); an inscribed angle is half the arc it subtends, so each opposite pair adds to 180°.
