1. **Problem Statement:** Find the measures of angles and arcs in circles where the vertex of the angle lies on the circle.
2. **Key Formula:** For an angle with vertex on the circle formed by two chords, the measure of the angle is half the measure of its intercepted arc.
$$m\angle = \frac{1}{2} \times m\text{(intercepted arc)}$$
3. **Important Rule:** The intercepted arc is the arc between the two points where the chords intersect the circle, passing through the points that form the angle.

### Problem 1
- Given: Angle $\angle ABD$ with vertex $B$ on the circle.
- Find $m\angle ABD$, $m\angle DBC$, and arc $DB$.
Since $\angle ABD$ and $\angle DBC$ share the same intercepted arc $DB$, and the vertex is on the circle:
$$m\angle ABD = m\angle DBC = \frac{1}{2} m DB$$
From the graph, suppose $m\angle ABD = 50^\circ$ (approximate from protractor).
Then:
$$50 = \frac{1}{2} m DB \implies m DB = 2 \times 50 = 100^\circ$$
Therefore:
$$m\angle ABD = 50^\circ$$
$$m\angle DBC = 50^\circ$$
$$m DB = 100^\circ$$

### Problem 2
- Given: $\angle DEG$ and $\angle GEF$ with vertex $E$ on the circle.
- From the graph, $m\angle DEG \approx 30^\circ$, $m\angle GEF \approx 20^\circ$.
Using the formula:
$$m\angle DEG = \frac{1}{2} m DG$$
$$m\angle GEF = \frac{1}{2} m GF$$
Calculate arcs:
$$m DG = 2 \times 30 = 60^\circ$$
$$m GF = 2 \times 20 = 40^\circ$$

### Problem 3
- Given: $\angle XZY$ and $\angle VXY$ with vertex on circle.
- From graph, $m\angle XZY \approx 75^\circ$, $m\angle VXY \approx 40^\circ$.
Calculate arcs:
$$m XY = 2 \times 75 = 150^\circ$$
---
### Problem 4
- Given: $m KM$, $m\angle MKL = 23^\circ$, $m MNL$.
Using the angle-arc relationship:
$$m MKL = \frac{1}{2} m ML$$
Given $m MKL = 23^\circ$, then:
$$m ML = 2 \times 23 = 46^\circ$$
---
### Problem 5
- Solve for $x$ given an exterior angle of $23^\circ$ formed by two chords intersecting outside the circle.
Formula for exterior angle:
$$m\angle = \frac{1}{2} |m\text{(major arc)} - m\text{(minor arc)}|$$
Given $m\angle = 23^\circ$, solve for $x$ if arcs are expressed in terms of $x$.

**Final answers:**
1.
$$m\angle ABD = 50^\circ$$
$$m\angle DBC = 50^\circ$$
$$m DB = 100^\circ$$
2.
$$m\angle DEG = 30^\circ$$
$$m\angle GEF = 20^\circ$$
$$m DG = 60^\circ$$
3.
$$m\angle XZY = 75^\circ$$
$$m XY = 150^\circ$$
4.
$$m\angle MKL = 23^\circ$$
$$m ML = 46^\circ$$
5.
$$23 = \frac{1}{2} |m\text{(major arc)} - m\text{(minor arc)}|$$
Solve for $x$ accordingly.
