question 14 of 44
what is the measure of the major arc?
image of circle with points r, q, y, o and a 150° central angle
a. 220°
b. 195°
c. 150°
d. 210°

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the total degrees in a circle

A full circle has \( 360^\circ \).

Step2: Identify the minor arc measure

The minor arc \( RY \) has a measure of \( 150^\circ \).

Step3: Calculate the major arc measure

To find the major arc, subtract the minor arc from \( 360^\circ \). So, \( 360^\circ - 150^\circ = 210^\circ \).

Answer:

D. \( 210^\circ \)
