Answer:

  1. 54°
  2. both are 73°
  3. x = 12

Explanation:

Some useful relations are ...

A triangle inscribed in a semicircle is a right triangle.

Acute angles in a right triangle are complementary.

An inscribed angle is half the measure of the arc it intercepts.

The sum of arcs around a circle is 360°; 180° around a semicircle.

__

1. Arc DF is twice the marked inscribed angle, so is 126°. Arc FE is supplementary to that, so is ...

arc FE = 180° -126°

arc FE = 54°

Alternate solution: arc FE is twice angle D, which is the complement of 63°.

2(90° -63°) = 2(27°) = 54° = arc FE

__

2. Arc GJ = 360°-68° -31° -115° = 146°

angle GHJ = angle GIJ = 146°/2 = 73°

__

3. arc UT = 2(90° -43°) = 94°

9x -14 = 94

9x = 108 . . . . . add 14

x = 12 . . . . . . . . divide by 9
