To solve the questions related to the properties of quadrilaterals inscribed in a circle, we can apply key properties such as the fact that the opposite angles of a quadrilateral that is inscribed in a circle sum to 180°, as well as relationships between angles and arcs.

Question 1

Given:

  • m∠QUAD = 55°
  • m∠AUAD = 112°
  • m∠UAD = 100°

To find m∠AD, we use the property that the opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral sum to 180°:

m∠QUAD + m∠AD = 180° m∠AD = 180° - m∠QUAD m∠AD = 180° - 55° = 125°

Therefore, m∠AD = 125°.

Question 2

We know:

  • m∠B = 4y + 27
  • m∠D = y - 12

Since ABCD is cyclic, opposite angles sum to 180°:

m∠B + m∠D = 180° 4y + 27 + (y - 12) = 180 5y + 15 = 180 5y = 165 y = 33

Now substitute y back into m∠D:

m∠D = y - 12 = 33 - 12 = 21°

Therefore, m∠D = 21°.

Question 3

Given the two consecutive angles of a cyclic quadrilateral:

  • First angle = 88°
  • Second angle = 108°

Let the angle opposite the 108° angle be labeled as x°.

Using the property that opposite angles sum to 180°:

x + 108° = 180° x = 180° - 108° x = 72°

Thus, x = 72°.

Question 4

Similar to question 3:

Given:

  • First angle = 108°
  • Second angle = 88° Let the angle opposite 88° be labeled y°.

Using the property that opposite angles sum to 180°:

y + 88° = 180° y = 180° - 88° y = 92°

Therefore, y = 92°.

Question 5

We are given:

  • Arc AT = 50°
  • Arc TH = 170°
  • m∠AMTH = 54°

To find m∠A, we use the relationship between the angle formed by two chords and the measure of the arc they intercept. The measure of angle A will be half the measure of the arc that it intercepts.

The arc intercepted by angle A (arc AT) is the arc opposite to angle MATH, which consists of the total arc minus the arc MA and arc TH:

The arc opposite M (the angle we know) would be arc TH + arc AT:

Arc opposite A = 50° + 170° = 220°.

Now to find m∠A:

m∠A = (arc opposite A) / 2 = (220°) / 2 = 110°.

Thus, m∠A = 110°.
