Answer:

x=12

Explanation:

  • Arc ST measures 26 so that means it central angle measure 26.
  • Since all radius are equal, Angle RVU also equal 26 since it a vertical angle.
  • RV=VT and UV=US so that any angle those four segment forms will be vertical angle since all radius are equal.
  • E.x(Angle RVS and UVT.

Since we know two arcs measure already,


360 - 26 - 26 =


360 - 52 = 308

Then since those are vertical angles, just divide 308 by 2


(308)/(2) = 154

Set 15x-26=154


15x - 26 = 154


15x = 180


x = 12

Answer:

360-(26x2)

=360-52

=308


15x - 26 = 308 \\ 15x = 308 + 26 \\ 15x = 334 \\ x = 334 / 15 \\ x = 22.27 \: or \: (334)/(15)
