Identify the definition of a circumscribed angle

An angle whose sides are tangent to a circle is called a circumscribed angle.

Analyze the lines and angles in the given figure

• Segment \(EB\) is tangent to circle \(A\) at point \(B\).
• Segment \(ED\) is tangent to circle \(A\) at point \(D\).
• The angle formed by these two tangent segments is \(\angle BED\) (or \(\angle E\)).

Determine the circumscribed angle

Since the sides of \(\angle BED\) are tangent to circle \(A\), \(\angle BED\) is the circumscribed angle.
</reasoning>

<answer>
\(\angle BED\) (or \(\angle E\))
</answer>
