try dividing by 2

OpenStudy (kikuo):

Well, why?

OpenStudy (kikuo):

@latinC

OpenStudy (latinc):

usually the outside angle is half of the inside angel of a circle

OpenStudy (kikuo):

What theorem is this? @latinC

OpenStudy (kikuo):

Hm, what's it called?

OpenStudy (latinc):

so I found out how to solve this question and I was little bit off

OpenStudy (latinc):

the lines extending outside the circle are tangent to the angel inside the circle so they each make a 90 degree angle at each of the points they meet., in other words you have a kite with two 90 degree angles, one 115 degree angle and you have to solve for X degrees :)

Directrix (directrix):

Formula Attached. Did you get 65 for x?

Directrix (directrix):

A radius drawn to a tangent to a circle is perpendicular to the tangent at the point of tangency. That gives two right angles and then the given 115 central angle. Sum those measures and subtract from 360 which is the sum of the angles of a quadrilateral. |dw:1462526779501:dw|
