Respuesta :

The measure of an inscribed angle is one-half its intercepted arc.
36 = 1/2 xz
72 = xz
The correct answer is C. 72 degrees.

Hope this helps =)


Measure of intercepted arc [tex]XZ[/tex] is equal to [tex]72[/tex]°.

What is intercepted arc?

" Intercepted arc is defined as arc which is inside the inscribed angle and and its end points are on the angle."

Inscribed angle theorem

As per inscribed angle theorem the measure of an inscribed angle formed in the interior of a circle is half the measure of the intercepted arc."

According to the question,

Given,

Measure of inscribed angle [tex]= 36[/tex]°

[tex]'x'[/tex] represents the measure of intercepted arc

Using inscribed angle theorem we have,

Intercepted arc [tex]=2[/tex] ( inscribed angle)

[tex]x\° = 2 \times 36\°[/tex]

   [tex]= 72\°[/tex]

Hence, Option(C) is the correct answer.
