Consider angle XZY in the attached figure. It is always 1/2 the measure of arc XY, no matter where Z may be located on the major arc XZY. This is true even when ZY is very short.
Now, consider what happens when Z falls on top of tangent point Y. The angle is still half the measure of arc XY, still 62°.
Selection C is appropriate.
_____
I apologize for any confusion caused by my choice of Z as the name of the point I added. Nothing in my explanation is intended to refer to the Z already shown in the unmodified figure.

Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as
y = mx + c
Where
m = slope = (change in the value of y in the y axis) / (change in the value of x in the x axis)
The equation of the given line is
x + 2y = 4
2y = - x + 4
y = -x/2 + 4/2
y = - x/2 + 2
Comparing with the slope intercept form, slope = - 1/2
If two lines are perpendicular, it means that the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.
Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (- 2, 1) is 2
To determine the intercept, we would substitute m = 2, x = - 2 and y = 1 into y = mx + c. It becomes
1 = 2 × - 2 + c = - 4 + c
c = 1 + 4 = 5
The equation becomes
y = 2x + 5

Answer:
6.0 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence of distances is a geometric sequence with first term a1 and common ratio (1 +10%) = 1.10. The sum of 7 terms of the sequence is ...
S7 = a1·(r^7 -1)/(r -1)
56.923 = a1·(1.1^7 -1)/(1.1 -1)
5.6923 = a1·0.9487171
Dividing by the coefficient of a1 gives its value:
5.6923/0.9487171 ≈ 5.999997 ≈ 6.000
The hiker traveled 6.0 miles on the first day.
