Applying the angle of intersecting secants and tangents theorem, m(KNL) is: A. 264°.
What is the Angle of Intersecting Secants and Tangents Theorem?
The angle of intersecting secants and tangents theorem states that the angle formed outside a circle has a measure that equals 1/2 the positive difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs.
60 = 1/2(18x - 6 - 5x - 17) [angle of intersecting secants and tangents theorem]
Solve for x
2(60) = 13x - 23
120 = 13x - 23
120 + 23 = 13x
143 = 13x
x = 143/13
x = 11
m(KNL) = (18x - 6 + 5x + 17)
m(KNL) = 23x + 11
Plug in the value of x
m(KNL) = 23(11) + 11
m(KNL) = 264° (option A)
