Answer:
Arc EC = 58°
Explanation:
First, find the value of x.
m<D = ½(arc EC) => Inscribed Angles Theorem
Substitute
2x - 5 = ½(5x - 27)
Multiply both sides by 2
2(2x - 5) = 5x - 27
4x - 10 = 5x - 27
Collect like terms
4x - 5x = 10 - 27
-x = -17
Divide both sides by -1
x = 17
Find arc EC:
Arc EC = 5x - 27
Plug in the value of x
Arc EC = 5(17) - 27 = 85 - 27
Arc EC = 58°
