Answer:

x = 72

Explanation:

∠DBC is an included angle and arc DB is its corresponding arc

Relationship between an included angle and its corresponding arc: an included angle is equal to one half of its corresponding arc

so

∠DBC =
(1)/(2) arc DB

we are given that arc DB = 144

so we exchange arc db with 144

∠DBC =
(1)/(2) 144


(1)/(2) 144=72

so we can conclude that ∠DBC (x) = 72
