ANSWER

58°

EXPLANATION

The relationship between the measure of the bigger arc and the smaller arc and the angle created by the secant and the tangent is

[tex]51 \degree = \frac{1}{2} (160 - x)[/tex]

Multiply through by 2

This implies that

[tex]2 \times 51 \degree =2 \times \frac{1}{2} (160 - x)[/tex]

We simplify to get:

[tex]102 \degree =160 - x[/tex]

Solve for x.

[tex]102 \degree - 160 \degree =- x[/tex]

[tex] - 58 \degree =- x[/tex]

[tex]58 \degree =x[/tex]
