Points E, F, and D are located on circle C. Circle C is shown. Line segments E C and D F are radii. Lines are drawn from points
E and D to point F to form chords E F and D F. Arc E D is 68 degrees. The measure of arc ED is 68°. What is the measure of angle EFD? 34° 68° 112° 132°
2 answers:
Answer:
Option (1). 34°
Step-by-step explanation:
From the figure attached, CE and CD are the radii of the circle C.
Central angle CED formed by the intercepted arc DE = 68°
Since measure of an arc = central angle formed by the intercepted arc
Therefore, m∠CED = 68°
Since m∠EFD = [Central angle of an intercepted arc measure the double of the inscribed angle by the same arc]
Therefore, m∠EFD =
= 34°
Therefore, Option (1) 34° will be the answer.

The length of the support post is 40 ft.
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, the height of the wall is 20 ft; support post forms 30 degree
Refer the attached image
Let us name the triangle as ABC where AB is the wall (opposite side) of 20 ft and is 30 degree (
) and AC is the length of the post.
To find: The length of the post (AC)
we know the formula, (trigonometric formula)
On substituting the values we get,
The value of sin 30 degree is 0.5
