Answer:

a) x = 128 degrees

b) Angle APD is the arc angle, which is equal to the central angle x subtended by the arc. Therefore angle APD = 128 degrees (and not 116 degrees)

Explanation:

Given:

attached diagram

ABC is a straight line

Solution:

a) Find x

ABC is a straight line

angle ABD = supplement of CBD = 180-CBD = 180-116 = 64 degrees.

x is the central angle of the arc APD

so angle ABD is the inscribed angle which equals half of the arc angle =>

angle ABD = x/2 = 64 degrees

Solve for x

x/2 = 64

x = 2*64

x = 128 degrees

b.

Angle APD is the arc angle, which is equal to the central angle x subtended by the arc. Therefore angle APD = 128 degrees (and not 116 degrees)
