In the diagram, RR, SS and TT lie on a circle with centre OO. If ∠RST=60∘\angle RST = 60^\circ, find the angle marked xx.

60°xOSRT
Worked solution (try it first)
  1. xx is at the centre and ∠RST\angle RST is at the circumference, both on arc RTRT.
  2. The angle at the centre is twice the angle at the circumference: x=2×60∘=120∘x = 2 \times 60^\circ = 120^\circ, option C.
