The value of x is 84°.
Solution:
Measure of intercepted arc = 168°
Measure of angle x = ?
<u>Tangent-chord relationship:</u>
<em>If a tangent and a chord intersect at a point, then the measure of each angle formed is half of the measure of its intercepted arc.</em>
The value of x is 84°.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be an acute angle.
To solve: , we take the sine inverse of both sides to obtain:
Recall composition property of a function and its inverse function.
We apply this property to the left hand side to obtain;
We now use our scientific calculator to obtain;
We round to the nearest tenth to obtain;
