Answer:

89

Explanation:

The arc intercepted by the inscribed 45° angle is twice that, 90°. The angle at x is half the sum of the intercepted arcs, so is ...

x = (90° +88°)/2

x = 89°

_____

Alternate solution

The inscribed angle intercepting the 88° arc will have half that measure, so is 44°. The triangle's exterior angle x will be equal to the sum of the remote interior angles:

x = 45° +44° = 89°
