| As we know from the school geometry course, if a quadrilateral is inscribed in any circle, then the sum of its opposite angles will always be equal to 180 °.
First, we determine what the angle of this quadrangle will be if it is known from the condition that an angle of 56 ° lies opposite it:
180 – 56 = 124.
Now let’s determine what the angle of this quadrangle will be if it is known from the condition that an angle of 114 ° lies opposite it:
180 – 114 = 66
Next, let’s compare them:
124> 66.
Answer: 66 °.
