Marat540 [252]

Answer:

∠B = 110°
∠D = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite angles in an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary, so ...

∠B +∠D = 180°

(3x -4) +(2x -6) = 180

5x = 190 . . . . . . . . . . . add 10, collect terms

x = 38 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

∠D = 2(38) -6 = 70

∠B = 180 -70 = 110

The measures of angles B and D are 110° and 70°, respectively.
