Question
$overleftrightarrow{hj}$ and $overleftrightarrow{jk}$ are tangent to $odot g$. what is $mangle j$?
$mangle j = square^circ$
Step1: Recall tangent-radius property
Tangents $\perp$ radii, so $\angle GHJ = 90^\circ$, $\angle GKJ = 90^\circ$.
Step2: Sum quadrilateral interior angles
Quadrilateral $GHJK$ has total interior angles $360^\circ$.
Step3: Calculate $\angle J$
$$m\angle J = 360^\circ - 90^\circ - 90^\circ - 120^\circ = 60^\circ$$
