You would distribute each number. Then afterwards simplify what you have into standard form. Once you have it in standard form you use the quadratic formula. The end answers are 1 and 7

Answer:
(2) 72°
Step-by-step explanation:
In this geometry, the angle at the tangent is half the measure of the intercepted arc.
∠CBD = (arc BD)/2 = 144°/2
∠CBD = 72°

<em>Additional comment</em>
Consider a point X anywhere on long arc BD. The inscribed angle at X will have half the measure of short arc BD, so will be 144°/2 = 72°. This is true regardless of the position of X on long arc BD. Now, consider that X might be arbitrarily close to point B. The angle at X is still 72°.
As X approaches B, the chord XB approaches a tangent to the circle at B. Effectively, this tangent geometry is a limiting case of inscribed angle geometry.
If the rule for this pattern is add 3, you would take term 1 which had 5 dots then add 3, that makes term 2 have 8 dots, than add 3 that means term 3 has 11 dots, term four would have 14, and each term after that would have 3 more
