Answer:

arc BC = 26°

arc AB = 90°

arc CAB = 334°

Explanation:

The angles of a linear pair total 180°. This fact lets us write an equation for x that helps us find the measures of all the angles and arcs. The arcs of a circle total 360°.

__

equation

∠APE +∠EPD = 180°

(25x +15)° +(33x -9)° = 180°

58x = 174 . . . . . . divide by °, subtract 6

x = 3 . . . . . . . . divide by 58

angles

Angle APE is ...

∠APE = (25x +15)° = (25·3 +15)° = 90°

Then ...

∠EPD = 180° -90° = 90°

∠DPC = (20·3 +4)° = 64°

∠CPB = 90° -64° = 26°

arcs

arc BC = ∠BPC = 26°

arc AB = ∠APB = 180° -90° = 90°

arc CAB = 360° -arc AB = 334°
