Answer:

∠ MAJ = 50°

Explanation:

the chord- chord angle KAJ is half the sum of the of the arcs intercepted by the angle and its vertical angle, that is

∠ KAJ =
(1)/(2) (KJ + LM ) =
(1)/(2) (190 + 70)° =
(1)/(2) × 260° = 130°

then

∠ MAJ and ∠ KAJ are adjacent angles and sum to 180° , so

∠ MAJ + 130° = 180° ( subtract 130° from both sides )

∠ MAJ = 50°
