By applying the theorem of intersecting secants, the measure of angle XYZ is equal to: A. 35°.

<h3>How to determine angle <XYZ?</h3>

By critically observing the geometric shapes shown in the image attached below, we can deduce that they obey the theorem of intersecting secants.

<h3>What is the theorem of intersecting secants?</h3>

The theorem of intersecting secants states that when two (2) lines intersect outside a circle, the measure of the angle formed by these lines is equal to one-half (½) of the difference of the two (2) arcs it intercepts.

By applying the theorem of intersecting secants, angle XYZ will be given by this formula:

<XYZ = ½ × (m<WZ - m<XZ)

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

<XYZ = ½ × (175 - 105)

<XYZ = ½ × 70

<XYZ = 35°.

By applying the theorem of intersecting secants, we can infer and logically deduce that the measure of angle XYZ is equal to 35°.
