Answer:


m\widehat{VU}=120^(\circ)

Explanation:

The angle
\angle TUV forms arc
\widehat{TV}. The measure of this arc is twice the measure of angle
\angle TUV, since
U is a point on the circle. Since
\overline{TU} forms an arc
\widehat{TU}, we can set up the following equation:


\widehat{TV}+\widehat{VU}=\widehat{TU}.

Since arc TU represents half of a circle and there are 360 degrees in a circle, we can substitute the following values and solve for the measure of arc VU:


\\2\cdot 30^(\circ)+\widehat{VU}=180^(\circ),\\60^(\circ)+\widehat{VU}=180^(\circ),\\m\widehat{VU}=\boxed{120^(\circ)}
