b. \\( 47 ^ { \circ } \\)
c. \\( 57 ^ { \circ } \\)
d. \\( 66 ^ { \circ } \\)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the inscribed - angle theorem

The measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of its intercepted arc.

Step2: Analyze the relationship between \(\angle1\) and the given arc

Let's assume the arc related to \(\angle1\) is \(x\). If we consider the property of angles formed by two chords intersecting outside the circle (the formula for the measure of an angle formed by two secants: \(m\angle=\frac{1}{2}(m\overset{\frown}{major}-m\overset{\frown}{minor})\)). But in this case, if we assume the central - angle - inscribed - angle relationship (assuming the given \(114^{\circ}\) is the measure of the arc that is related to \(\angle1\) in the inscribed - angle formula). Wait, no, actually, if we use the property that the measure of an angle formed by two chords intersecting inside the circle: \(m\angle=\frac{1}{2}(m\overset{\frown}{1}+m\overset{\frown}{2})\). But if we assume the given \(114^{\circ}\) is the measure of the arc that \(\angle1\) is half of. Wait, no, another approach: the measure of an inscribed angle \(\theta\) and the central angle \(\alpha\) subtended by the same arc: \(\theta=\frac{1}{2}\alpha\). If we assume the arc opposite to \(\angle1\) has a measure such that \(\angle1\) is half of the difference between \(180^{\circ}\) (a straight - line related arc) and \(114^{\circ}\). Let's use the formula for the measure of an angle formed by two secants: \(m\angle1=\frac{1}{2}(180 - 114)\)

$$m\angle1=\frac{1}{2}(66)=33^{\circ}$$

Answer:

A. \(33^{\circ}\)
