Find the value of each variable. line / is a tangent

a° = 118° , b° = 49° , c° = 144° , d° = 98°

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study the figure and take the information to solve the question

- There is a circle

- There is an inscribed triangle in the circle

- Each vertex of the triangle is an inscribed angle in the circle

- Each vertex subtended by an arc

- The measure of any inscribed angle is half the measure of its

  subtended arc

* Now lets solve the question

- The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°

∵ The triangle has angle of measure 59° and another angle of

   measure 72°

∴ The measure of the third angle = 180° - (59° + 72°) = 49°

∵ b° is the measure of the third angle in the triangle

∴ b° = 49°

- The arc of measure a° is intercept the angle of measure 59°

∵ The measure of the angle is half the measure of the arc

∴ 1/2 a° = 59° ⇒ multiply both sides by 2

∴ a° = 118°

- The arc of measure c° is intercept the angle of measure 72°

∵ The measure of the angle is half the measure of the arc

∴ 1/2 c° = 72° ⇒ multiply both sides by 2

∴ c° = 144°

- The arc of measure d° is intercept the angle of measure 49°

∵ The measure of the angle is half the measure of the arc

∴ 1/2 d° = 49° ⇒ multiply both sides by 2

∴ d° = 98°

-2 is the right

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
