Answer:

D. 86°

Explanation:

Points D and F divide the circle into two arcs. The long arc is labeled 274°, and the short arc is the one you're asked to find. You know the total of these two arcs is the full circle, 360°.

274° + DF = 360°

DF = 360° -274°

DF = 86°

__

There are other relationships you can use to find arc DF. One of the simpler ones is ...

DF and the external angle at E are supplementary:

DF = 180° -94° = 86°
