Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
m<K = 71°
arc JL = 16x - 2
m<k = ½(arc JL) => inscribed angles theorem
Substitute
71 = ½(16x - 2)
Multiply both sides by 2
71*2 = 16x - 2
142 = 16x - 2
Add 2 to both sides
142 + 2 = 16x - 2 + 2
144 = 16x
Divide both sides by 16
144/16 = 16x/16
9 = x
x = 9
Monomial to the 2nd degree
