The farthest distance a satellite signal can directly reach is the length of the segment tangent to the curve of Earth’s surface. The diagram is not drawn to scale. If the angle formed by the tangent satellite signals is 134°, what is the measure of the intercepted arc on Earth?

Draw a line from the satellite to the center of the earth.
Now you have two right triangles, so it should be clear that the arc subtends an angle of 2*23 = 46°

for me the question was ''The farthest distance a satellite signal can directly reach is the length of the segment tangent to the curve of Earth’s surface. If the angle formed by the tangent satellite signals is 126°, what is the measure of the intercepted arc on Earth? The figure is not drawn to scale.''
and the answer was 54°
