a. Draw any obtuse angle and label it angle AXB. Then draw ray XY so that it bisects < AXB.b. if m AXB = 140°, then what is m ZYXB?

The obtuse angle is shown in the diagram below:

The word, "bisect" means to divide an angle into 2 equal parts. Given that ray XY bisects angle AXB, it mean that it divides it into two equal halves. Theregfore, angle YXB is 140/2 = 70 degrees
