Question Analysis

This question focuses on applying the Outside Angle Theorem. We need to correctly identify the relevant intercepted arcs to find the measure of  formed by a tangent and a secant from an external point .

 

Key Concept Explanation

Outside Angle Theorem: The measure of an angle formed by two secants, two tangents, or a secant and a tangent from an external point to a circle is equal to half the difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs. If the angle is , the major arc is , and the minor arc is , then .

 

Step - by - Step Solution

1. Find the measure of minor arc :

The sum of arc measures in a circle is . Given arc  and arc , then the measure of minor arc
