Question

What is the value of x????

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 radii of the circle form an isosceles triangle with base angles congruent, both 59°

The angle at the vertex O is then

180° - (59 + 59)° = 180° - 118° = 62°

The angle between the tangent and the radius is 90°

Then

x = 180 - (90 + 62) ← sum of angles in a triangle

x = 180 - 152 = 28
