Answer:

C = 77°

Explanation:

From the intercepted arc theorem, we can say that Angle ABC (angle B) is HALF of the arc intercepted (which is 110).

Hence, angle ABC = 55.

Now, looking at triangle ABC, we know that sum of 3 angles of a triangle is 180. We already know Angle A to be 48 and Angle B to be 55, thus Angle C is:

A + B + C = 180

48 + 55 + C = 180

103 + C = 180

C = 180 - 103

C = 77
