Answer:
115°
Explanation:
You want the measure of angle S opposite angle (4x+5)° in an inscribed quadrilateral in which the other two angles are (5x-2)° and (7x+2)°.
Inscribed quadrilateral
The measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of the arc it intercepts.
Two opposite angles in an inscribed quadrilateral intercept arcs that total the full circle. Since the sum of double those angles is 360°, the sum of opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral is 180°—they are supplementary.
We can use this to find the value of x:
(5x -2)° +(7x +2)° = 180°
12x = 180 . . . . . . simplify
x = 15 . . . . . . . divide by 12
Now, the angle opposite S can be found to be ...
(4x +5)° = (4·15 +5)° = 65°
Angle S is the supplement of this:
S = 180° -65°
S = 115°
