how do you get that ? I got 23?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

23 is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sum of the angles in a qudrilateral is 360

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't have the answer

OpenStudy (rajee_sam):

23 is right

OpenStudy (rajee_sam):

The angles formed by a tangent and the radius of a circle is 90°. So if you see that there are 2, 90° and one 157°. Sum of angles in a quadrilateral is 360° = 90 + 90 + 157 + x. Solve you get x = 23 @ashwinjohn3 you are confusing with the relationship between central angle and inscribed angle. Angle x is not inscribed

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

\[x = \frac{1}{2}(outer Arc - innerArc)\]

OpenStudy (rajee_sam):

what?
