Answer:

Explanation:

so you understand what to do, or what they want you to figure out.

AD is an "arc length" . So they want to know the length, in degrees. along the circle , from A to D. Why didn't they just say so, huh. :D well, they kinda did, but not as clear as they could have.

next. you need to know how far around a circle is all the way around?

if you guessed 360°, you are right

next because they gave us that angle of 93° we know all the angles around the point E, complimentary angles add to 180 so 180-93 = 87°. That's the to the left of 93 and directly below it too. This is the answer to the 2nd question ∠DEC= 87°

we can only write arc length of AD in respect to what we know about the circle.

so, arc length of AD is 161° + BA + AD + DC = 360

or getting AD by it self , then

AD =360 -161 -BA -DC

AD = 199°-BA-DC

maybe that's all you need to do, also i'm wondering if there is some more info about this problem , maybe at the top of the page? of off the screen?
