Question

I need help.ASAP.thanks

Answer 1

Both angles ABO and ADO are right angles because ABP and ADQ are tangent to circle O. The interior angles of a quadrilateral add up to 360 degrees, so the measure of angle BOD (and measure of minor arc BD, denoted
`\widehat{BD}`) is

`y+m\angle BOD+90^\circ+90^\circ=360^\circ\implies m\angle BOD=180^\circ-y`

This also means the measure of the central angle BOD that subtends major arc BCD (also the measure of the major arc BCD is)

`m\widehat{BCD}=360^\circ-(180^\circ-y)=180^\circ+y`

The inscribed angle theorem says that the measure of angle BOD is twice the measure of angle BCD, so

`m\angle BCD=90^\circ-\frac y2`

The interior angles of quadrilateral BCDO have sum

`\underbrace{90^\circ-2x}_(m\angle CBO)+\underbrace{180^\circ+y}_{m\widehat{BCD}}+\underbrace{x}_(m\angle CDO)+\underbrace{90^\circ-\frac y2}_(m\angle BCD)=360^\circ`

Simplifying this equation will give you
`y=2x`.
