Answer:

mBCD = 28°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle mBFD inscribes the arc mBD, so we have that:

mBFD = mBD/2

76 = mBD/2

mBD = 152°

The angle mBOD is a central angle related to the arc mBD, so we have that:

mBOD = mBD = 152°

In the quadrilateral BODC, the sum of internal angles needs to be equal to 360° (property of all convex quadrilaterals). The angles mCBO and mCDO are right angles, because EDC and ABC are tangents to the circle.

So, we have that:

mBOD + mCDO + mBCD + mCBO = 360

152 + 90 + mBCD + 90 = 360

mBCD = 360 - 90 - 90 - 152

mBCD = 28°

Given the system of equations, what is the solution?
pychu [463]
Answer is C. By solving x-y=-5 to x=-5+y and converting 2x + y = -1 into 2x + x + 5 = -1 the answer becomes -2 =x. By plugging that into 2 (-2) + y = -1, the answer is y=3. So your answer is C
