Applying the angles of intersecting secants theorem, the measure of angle ACB is: 16°.

<h3>What is the Angles of Intersecting Secants Theorem?</h3>

The angles of intersecting secants theorem states that the angle formed by two lines (secants or a tangent and a secant) that intersect outside a circle equals half the difference of the measure of the intercepted arcs.

Find m(XA) based on the inscribed angle theorem:

m(XA) = 2(m∠CBA)

Substitute

m(XA) = 2(42)

m(XA) = 84°

Based on the angles of intersecting secants theorem, we would have:

m∠ACB = 1/2[m(AB) - m(XA)]

Substitute

m∠ACB = 1/2[100 - 84]

m∠ACB = 16°

Therefore, applying the angles of intersecting secants theorem, the measure of angle ACB is: 16°.

KIM [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. x + 51 + 39 + 127 = 360 (1 revolution is 360°)

step 2. x + 90 + 127 = 360

step 3. x + 127 = 270. (subtract 90 on both sides)

step 4. x = 143° (subtract 127 on both sides)

Answer:

b. -36/77

Step-by-step explanation:

As 0 < x < \pi/2 => tan x > 0

As 0< y <  \pi/2 => tan y > 0

We have the formula:

  • \frac{1}{sin^{2}x } =1 + cot^{2}x => \frac{1}{(8/17)^{2} } = 1+cot^{2}x => cot^{2} x=225/64

As tan x = 1/(cotx) => tan^{2}x = \frac{1}{cot^{2}x} =\frac{1}{225/64} = \frac{64}{225}

As tan x > 0 => tan x = 8/15

  • \frac{1}{cos^{2}y } = 1+tan^{2}y => \frac{1}{(3/5)^{2} } = 1 + tan^{2} y => tan^{2}y=\frac{16}{9}

As tan y > 0 => tan y = 4/3

As tan (x-y)= \frac{tan x - tan y}{1+ tanx * tany} =\frac{(8/15)-(4/3)}{1+(8/15)*(4/3)} = \frac{-36}{77}
