Answer 1

Answer:

∠C = 80 ° ; ∠ T = 40°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle CRS is isosceles because it has two sides of equal length. (CR and CS are radii).

An isosceles triangle has also two equal angles, which means that ∠CRS= ∠CSR.

Therefore, ∠C = 80 ° (180° – 50° - 50°)  because the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.  

∠C is the central angle of the arc RS.

∠ T is the inscribed angle of the arc RS.

An inscribed angle is half of a central angle that subtends the same arc on the circle, so the inscribed angle ∠ T is half of the central angle ∠C. Since ∠C = 80 °, we can easily determine the measure of ∠ T:  

80° divided by 2 is 40°.
