Answer:

c. 107°

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached, Circle P, segments AB and BC, and angle x are shown.

From circumscribed angle theorem, we know that angle ABC and angle x are supplementary, then:

x + 73° = 180°

x = 180° - 73°

x = 107°

Line segments AB and BC are tangents to Circle P. What is the value of x? a.117 b-example-1
