uggghhh trying to solve i have the basic idea just need to find some numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok I'm done let me explain this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

? XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since 51 is a circumscribed angle, arc BE is 2*5, or 102. 102-72=30, and 180-30 is 150, or arc AC. that means angle D is half, or 75. since ABCD is circumscribable, opposite angles are supplementary and B is 105. 105*2=210=arc ADC, and 210-30(arc AE)-112=68, so half of that is 34 which is the answer. 34

OpenStudy (anonymous):

68 51 56 85 These are the only answer choices

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i found angle of it i dint have to do that last step so the answer=68

OpenStudy (anonymous):

68 is the answer i just did one extra step

This is a very simple problem with lots of extra info to make it look complicated. Because segment CE is a diameter, arc CDE measures 180 deg. |dw:1432002591257:dw|
