Enter your answer in the box.


°

A quadrilateral inscribed in a circle. The vertices of the quadrilateral lie on the edge of the circle and are labeled A, B, C, D. The interior angle A is labeled as left parenthesis 2 x plus 1 right parenthesis degrees. The angle B is labeled as 148 degrees. The angle D is labeled as x degrees.

Respuesta :

The measure of angle A is 65°

Explanation:

Given that ABCD is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle.

The measure of angle A is [tex]\angle A=(2x+1)^{\circ}[/tex]

The measure of angle B is [tex]\angle B=148^{\circ}[/tex]

The measure of angle D is [tex]\angle D=x^{\circ}[/tex]

We need to determine the measure of angle A.

Since, we know that the angles B and D are opposite angles and the opposite angles of a quadrilateral add up to 180°

Thus, we have,

[tex]\angle B+\angle D=180^{\circ}[/tex]

Substituting the values, we have,

[tex]148^{\circ}+x=180^{\circ}[/tex]

          [tex]x=32^{\circ}[/tex]

Thus, the value of x is 32°

Substituting the value of x in the measure of angle A, we get,

[tex]\angle A=(2x+1)^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\angle A=(2(32)+1)^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\angle A=(64+1)^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\angle A=65^{\circ}[/tex]

Thus, the measure of angle A is 65°
