Referring to the first screenshot.

MichelleB · Answer

MIK is just a line it looks like

Shadow · Answer

But what kind of line...that is usually particular to circles?

MichelleB · Answer

hm is it the tangent line?

Shadow · Answer

A line that crosses from one point on the edge of a circle to a point on the opposite end of the circle is a line known as the diameter.

The diameter effectively halves a circle. A circle consists of 360 degrees. Therefore the angle created by the diameter is half that, which is 180 degrees.

Shadow · Answer

Angle MIK is the diameter

MIK = KIJ + MIJ

KIJ = 55
MIK = 180

180 = 55 + MIJ

I am sure you know what to do from here.
