Answer:

m∠A = 42°

Explanation:

* Lets revise some facts in the circle

- If the vertex of an angle on the circle and the two sides of the

angle are chords in the circle, then this angle is called

an inscribed angle

- Each inscribed angle subtended by the opposite arc, the arc name

is the starting point and the ending point of the angle

# Ex: ∠CAB is subtended by arc CB

- There is a relation between the inscribed angle and its

subtended arc, the measure of the inscribed angle equals half

the measure of its subtended arc

* Now lets solve the problem

- ∠CAB is an inscribed angle subtended by arc CB

∴ m∠CAB = (1/2) measure of arc CB

∵ The measure of arc CB = 84°

∴ The measure of ∠A = 1/2 × 84° = 42°

* m∠A = 42°
