Answer:

? = 157°

Explanation:

the measure of the secant- secant angle KLM is half the difference of the intercepted arcs , that is


(1)/(2) (CJ - KM) = ∠ KLM , that is


(1)/(2) (? - 53) = 52° ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )

? - 53° = 104° ( add 53° to both sides )

? = 157°
