Answer:

$176\°$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The inscribed angle is half that of the arc it comprises.

In this problem

Let

x-----> the measure of an arc intercepted by an inscribed angle

$88\°=\frac{1}{2}(x)$

$x=2(88\°)=176\°$

Find the area of the figure below

Easy

the easiest way is to imagine that you have a rectangle with a corner cut off
the area of the figure=area of rectangle-area cut off

area that was cut off was a triangle

area of rectangle=length times width
area of triangle=1/2base times height

so we draw imaginary lines like in attachment
find area of rectangle
legnth=9 inch
width=9 inch
area=9 times 9=81 in^2

triangle
the top part is ?+5=9, so the base of triangle=4
the side is ?+4=9, so the base is 5
area=1/2 times 4 times 5=10 in^2

area=rectangle-triangle
area=81-10=71 in^2
