1. Problem 13: Find the measure of the angle at point V formed by a tangent and a chord intercepting an arc of 160°.
2. Formula: The angle formed by a tangent and a chord is half the measure of the intercepted arc.
$$\text{Angle} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Intercepted Arc}$$
3. Calculation:
$$\text{Angle} = \frac{1}{2} \times 160 = 80^\circ$$
4. Explanation: The angle between a tangent and a chord is always half the intercepted arc's measure. Here, the arc is 160°, so the angle is 80°.
5. Problem 14: Find the measure of the intercepted arc when the angle formed by a tangent and a chord is 58°.
6. Using the same formula:
$$58 = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Arc}$$
7. Multiply both sides by 2:
$$2 \times 58 = \cancel{2} \times \frac{1}{\cancel{2}} \times \text{Arc} \Rightarrow 116 = \text{Arc}$$
8. So, the intercepted arc is 116°.
9. Problem 15: Given angle 35° and arc expression $24x + 2$, find $x$.
10. Using the formula:
$$35 = \frac{1}{2} (24x + 2)$$
11. Multiply both sides by 2:
$$2 \times 35 = \cancel{2} \times \frac{1}{\cancel{2}} (24x + 2) \Rightarrow 70 = 24x + 2$$
12. Subtract 2 from both sides:
$$70 - 2 = 24x \Rightarrow 68 = 24x$$
13. Divide both sides by 24:
$$\frac{68}{\cancel{24}} = \frac{24x}{\cancel{24}} \Rightarrow \frac{68}{24} = x$$
14. Simplify fraction:
$$x = \frac{17}{6} \approx 2.83$$
15. Problem 16: Given arc 200° and angle expression $21x - 4$, find $x$.
16. Using the formula:
$$21x - 4 = \frac{1}{2} \times 200$$
17. Calculate right side:
$$21x - 4 = 100$$
18. Add 4 to both sides:
$$21x - 4 + 4 = 100 + 4 \Rightarrow 21x = 104$$
19. Divide both sides by 21:
$$\frac{21x}{\cancel{21}} = \frac{104}{\cancel{21}} \Rightarrow x = \frac{104}{21} \approx 4.95$$
