Question

From the following picture, determine x and y.

$\uptext{x}$

Answer

Since this polygon is inscribed within a circle, we know a few things.

The first thing we know is that the sum of all the interior angles must equal $360^{\circ}$ .

The last thing we know, the most important one is all opposite angles must equal $180^{\circ}$ .

Now we need to set up equations to solve for $\uptext{x}$ , and .

$\180 = y + 83.0 \180 = x + 109.0$

Now let's solve for $\uptext{x}$ , and .

$\180-83.0 = y +83.0{\color{Red} -83.0}\180-109.0 = x+109.0{\color{Red} -109.0}$

$\y = 97.0 \x = 71.0$
