1. **Problem Statement:**
Find the values of angles $a$, $b$, $c$, and $d$ in the circle with center $O$ where $PQ$ is tangent at $A$. Given angles: $\angle C = 110^\circ$, $\angle D = 60^\circ$.
2. **Key Theorems and Rules:**
- Tangent-radius theorem: The tangent at a point on a circle is perpendicular to the radius at that point, so $\angle OAP = 90^\circ$.
- Angles in the same segment are equal.
- Opposite angles in cyclic quadrilaterals sum to $180^\circ$.
3. **Find angle $a$:**
Since $PQ$ is tangent at $A$, $\angle OAP = 90^\circ$.
Angle $a$ is $\angle OAB$, which lies on the radius $OA$ and chord $AB$.
4. **Find angle $b$:**
$\angle b$ is at $B$ near center $O$. Since $O$ is center, $OB$ is radius.
$\angle b$ is the angle between $OB$ and chord $BC$.
5. **Find angle $c$ and $d$:**
Given $\angle C = 110^\circ$ and $\angle D = 60^\circ$.
6. **Use cyclic quadrilateral properties:**
Points $A, B, C, D$ lie on the circle.
Opposite angles sum to $180^\circ$.
So, $\angle A + \angle C = 180^\circ$ and $\angle B + \angle D = 180^\circ$.
7. **Calculate $\angle A$:**
$$\angle A = 180^\circ - 110^\circ = 70^\circ$$
8. **Calculate $\angle B$:**
$$\angle B = 180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ$$
9. **Relate $a$ and $b$ to $\angle A$ and $\angle B$:**
Since $a$ and $b$ are angles at $A$ and $B$ near center $O$, and $O$ is center, $a$ and $b$ are central angles subtending arcs.
10. **Calculate $a$ and $b$:**
Central angle equals the arc it subtends.
Since $\angle A = 70^\circ$ is an inscribed angle, the central angle $a$ subtending the same arc is twice that:
$$a = 2 \times 70^\circ = 140^\circ$$
Similarly for $b$:
$$b = 2 \times 120^\circ = 240^\circ$$
11. **Calculate $c$ and $d$:**
Given $c = 110^\circ$, $d = 60^\circ$ (from problem statement).

**Question 6:**
1. **Problem Statement:**
Find $p$ and $q$ in the circle with given angles $45^\circ$, $65^\circ$ at $B$ and $80^\circ$ at $C$.
2. **Calculate $p$:**
Angles at $B$ are $45^\circ$ and $65^\circ$, so
$$p = 45^\circ + 65^\circ = 110^\circ$$
Reason: Angles on a straight line sum to $180^\circ$, and these two angles form $p$.
3. **Calculate $q$:**
Sum of angles in triangle $BCD$ is $180^\circ$.
Given $\angle B = 110^\circ$, $\angle C = 80^\circ$, so
$$q = 180^\circ - 110^\circ - 80^\circ = -10^\circ$$
This is impossible, so re-examine.
Actually, $p$ is angle at $A$, $q$ at $D$.
Use alternate segment theorem or cyclic quadrilateral properties.
4. **Use cyclic quadrilateral:**
Sum of opposite angles is $180^\circ$.
If $p$ and $q$ are opposite angles,
$$p + q = 180^\circ$$
So,
$$q = 180^\circ - p = 180^\circ - 110^\circ = 70^\circ$$
---
**Final answers:**
- $a = 140^\circ$
- $b = 240^\circ$
- $c = 110^\circ$
- $d = 60^\circ$
- $p = 110^\circ$
- $q = 70^\circ$
