Answer:

The measure of the major arc MBD is 270°

Explanation:

we know that

The measure of major arc MBD is equal to the sum of the measure of the arc MB plus the measure of the arc BD

BD is a diameter-----> divide the circle into two equal parts

so

arc BD=180°

arc MB is a quarter of circle

so

arc MB=90°

therefore

arc MBD=180°+90°=270°
