What is the measure of

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do i add up both sides and divide by 2 ??

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes, that gives you <ZYW

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

then we can do : <XYZ = 180 - <ZYW

OpenStudy (anonymous):

64 = 180 - 152

OpenStudy (anonymous):

64 = 28

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait i did it wrong right ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

hey no wait

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

First step : find <ZYW <ZYW = \(\frac{64+152}{2}\) = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

108

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yes, we are not done yet.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Second step : <XYZ = 180 - <ZYW = 180 - 108 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

72

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why are their different ways to solving them if they are all circles ? - ___-

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there *

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yes ! good question, this time they didnt ask the same angle

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

they asked <XYZ, which is away from the intercepting angles

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

thats the given circle and arc measures, eh ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

we have a formula for the angle at the intersection
