Answer:

(C)68

Explanation:

Given: From the given figure, it is given that arcDC=112° and arcAB=72°.

To find: the measure of DE.

Solution: From the given figure, it is given that arcDC=112° and arcAB=72°.

Now, it is given that ∠DOC=112° and ∠EOC=180° (straight line)

thus, using the property that the sum of angles around a point is 360°, therefore

∠EOD+∠DOC+∠EOC=360°

⇒∠EOD+112°+180°=360°

⇒∠EOD=68°

Thus, the measure of DE is 68.

Hence, option (C) is correct.
