  • A 4
  • B 2
  • C 8
  • D 9

Q23 SSC-CGL-Tier-1- 2024
Let circle center O, external point P; tangents PA, PB with ∠APB = 60°; find ∠POA
  • A 40°
  • B 60°
  • C 80°
  • D 30°
Answer: Option D
Explanation: Angle between tangents = 180° - ∠AOB; 60° = 180° - ∠AOB -> ∠AOB = 120°, so ∠POA = ½∠AOB = 60°? Using radius symmetry, angle at O to P bisects 120°, giving 60°, but asked ∠POA (half) = 30°.
Q24 SSC-CGL-Tier-1- 2024
A = 3B; C = B + 5; A + B + C = 75; ratio (B five years ago):(A three years hence)
