The value of x according to the given task is; 12.

<h3>What is the value of x?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the value of x is to be determined.

Since, lines AB and BC are both tangent to the circle and they both share a point of intersection; it follows that;

5x = 3x +24

  • collect like terms

2x = 24

  • divide both sides by 2

x = 24/2

x = 12.

Find the shaded area ..
never [62]

Answer:

39°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle adjacent to 115° in the lower triangle = 180° - 115° = 65°

angle on circle in lower triangle

= 180° - (65 + 76)°  ← angle sum in triangle

= 180° - 141° = 39°

Angles on the circle subtended from the same arc are congruent, then

shaded angle = 39°
