Question

in circle o, what is ( mangle maj )?

Explanation:

Step1: Find the measure of the arc opposite to ∠MAJ

The sum of the measures of the arcs of a circle is \(360^{\circ}\).
Let the arc opposite to \(\angle MAJ\) be arc \(LKJ\).
The measure of arc \(LKJ=360-(170 + 80)=110^{\circ}\)

Step2: Use the vertical - angles and inscribed - angle - formed - by - two - chords theorem

The measure of an angle formed by two chords intersecting at a point inside the circle is \(\frac{1}{2}\) the sum of the measures of the intercepted arcs.
\(\angle MAJ=\frac{1}{2}(170 + 80)\)

Step3: Calculate the value of \(\angle MAJ\)

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Answer:

\(125^{\circ}\)
