Answer:
a = 0,-1
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2 + a=0
Factor out an a
a(a+1) =0
Using the zero product property
a=0 a+1 =0
a=0 a= -1

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.
