Question
line t is tangent to the circle. find ( moverset{\frown}{ab} )
Step1: Recall tangent-chord angle theorem
The measure of an angle formed by a tangent and a chord is half the measure of its intercepted arc.
Step2: Set up the equation
Let $m\overset{\frown}{AB} = x$. The given angle is $65^\circ$, so:
$65^\circ = \frac{1}{2}x$
Step3: Solve for $x$
Multiply both sides by 2:
$x = 65^\circ \times 2$
