- Angles in Same Segment: Angles subtended by an arc in the same segment of a circle are equal.
- Angle in a Semicircle: An angle inscribed in a semicircle is a right angle (90°).
- Opposite Segment Angle Sum: The sum of angles subtended by a chord on opposite segments of a circle is 180°.
- Central Angle Theorem: The angle subtended by an arc at the centre of a circle is twice the angle subtended by it at any point on the remaining circumference.
- Equal Chords & Central Angles: Arcs/chords of equal length subtend equal angles at the centre, and vice versa.
- Perpendicular Bisector Property: The perpendicular drawn from the centre of a circle to a chord bisects the chord, and the line joining the centre to the midpoint of a chord is perpendicular to it.

(i) Angle A:**
∠ A and 45°lie in the same segment of the circle. Thus, ∠ A = 45°.
(ii) Angles x and y:
x and y lie in the same segment as 33°. Therefore, x = 33°and y = 33°.
(iii) Angle p:
p lies in the same segment as 40°. Therefore, p = 40°.
(iv) Angles m and n:
Angle m corresponds to 72°and angle n corresponds to 57°in the same segments. Thus, m = 72°and n = 57°.
(v) Angles u and v:
Angle u corresponds to 87°and angle v corresponds to 93°in their respective segments. Thus, u = 87°and v = 93°.
