OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

The major arc minus the minor arc, then divided by 2, equals the angle.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

\(40 = \dfrac{1}{2}(x - 140)\) Solve this equation for x.

k 1 sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x=220 ?

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Correct.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

\(40 = \dfrac{1}{2}(x - 140)\) \(80 = x - 140\) \(220 = x\) \(x = 220\)
