Answer:

  • 21.75

Explanation:

The angle is tangent chord angle.

The tangent chord angle is half the measure the intercepted arc.

The intercepted arc by this angle is:

  • 360° - (74° + 86°) = 200°

Find the value of x:

  • 4x + 13 = 1/2*200
  • 4x + 13 = 100
  • 4x = 100 - 13
  • 4x = 87
  • x = 87/4
  • x = 21.75
