Angles in Alternate Segments :
In Fig. 13.16, TA is the tangent to the circle at A and AQ is a chord at the point
of contact. Z7AQ is the angle between the tangent TA and the chord AQ at A.
4OQPA is the angle subtended by chord AQ in the alternate segment. We will now
learn a theorem that states how they are related. v
