Best Answer

The inscribed angle forms the apex of the angle. It is a point. To circumscribe the point is 360 degrees.

So the inscribed angle and the reflex (outscribed) angle sum to a total of 360 degrees.

Can a parallelogram always be inscribed in a circle?

No. For example, if one angle measures 100 degrees, and its adjacent angle is 80 degrees, then the opposite angles would be either 200 or 160 degrees, but in order for a quadrilateral to be inscribed in a circle the opposite angles would have to equal 180 degrees. A parallelogram can be inscribed in a circle if it is a rectangle.

What are the opposite angles of a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle?

A quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle it means all the vertices of quadrilateral are touching the circle. therefore it is a cyclic quadrilateral and sum of the opposite angles in cyclic quadrilateral is supplementary. suppose if one angle is A then another will be 180 degree - angle A.
