Answer:


m<C=62\°

Explanation:

we know that

In an inscribed quadrilateral opposite angles are supplementary

so

In this problem


m<D+m<B=180\°


m<C+m<A=180\°

step 1

Find the value of x


m<D+m<B=180\°

substitute the values and solve for x


(x+20)\°+(3x)\°=180\°


4x=180\°-20\°


x=160\°/4=40\°

step 2

Find the measure of angle A


m<A=(2x+38)\°=2(40\°)+38\°=118\°

step 3

Find the measure of angle C


m<C+m<A=180\°

substitute the values and solve for m<C


m<C+118\°=180\°


m<C=180\°-118\°=62\°
