Question

Find the measure of the indicated arc in the diagram. m Error converting from MathML to accessible text. =?

  1. 160°    
  2. 180°    
  3. 120°    
  4. 360°    

hintHint:

by theorem If a diameter of a circle is perpendicular to a chord, then the diameter bisects the chord and its arc.

The correct answer is: 160°


    OPTION 1 : 160 to the power of O IS THE CORRECT ANSWER
    by theorem If a diameter of a circle is perpendicular to a chord, then the diameter bisects the chord and its arc.
    so90 to the power of o minus x to the power of o space equals space 8 x to the power of o
9 x to the power of o space equals space 90 to the power of o
x to the power of o space equals space 90 to the power of o over 9 to the power of o space equals space 10 to the power of o
s o space A n g l e space D B space equals space 8 X to the power of o space equals space 80 to the power of o
b y space t h e space t h e o r m space a n g l e space D B space equals A D space equals space 80 to the power of o

    = 80° + 80°
    = 160°
