Answer:

x = 120

Explanation:

The segments to the circle from an external point are tangents

The angle between a tangent and a radius at the point of contact = 90°

The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral = 360° , then

60 + 90 + 90 + x = 360

240 + x = 360 ( subtract 240 from both sides )

x = 120

Answer:

x=120 degrees

Explanation:

Because these two angles share the two same points, either one is 2x larger or 2x smaller than the other. X is the larger angle, therefore is 2x larger than 60. 60×2=120. I hope this helps you!
