Answer: Let x = the measure of the larger arc and
let y = the measure of the smaller arc which is closest to the angle’s vertex. We know that x + y = 180 because that is given.
The secant-secant angle has a measure that is half the difference of the intercepts arcs. That means (1/2)(x - y) = 32 for this problem
We just need to solve the system
x + y = 180 and x - y = 64
Adding the equations you get 2x = 244 so x = 122 degrees and y = 58 degrees

Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
1. set the sides equal to each other
8x-12=12
2. solve for x
8x=24
x=3
(-1/2)/x = -7/3
*multiply both sides by x
(-1/2) = (-7/3)x
*divide both sides by (-7/3)
(-1/2)/(-7/3) = x
dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by it's reciprocal:
x = (-1/2)*(-3/7)
* the negative signs cancel
x = (1/2)*(3/7)
x = (1*3)/(2*7)
<u><em>x = 3/14</em></u>
Answer:
operator
Step-by-step explanation:
Operator is represented as any symbol that indicates an operation to be performed.
Examples:
- Square root of√x, which indicates the square root is to be taken
- d/dx, which indicates differentiation with respect to x is to be performed
