1. Trapezoid HGFE is inscribed in a circle, with EF || GH. If arc GH is 70 degrees, arc EH is x^2 - 2x degrees, and arc FG is 56 - 3x degrees, where x > 0 find arc EPF, in degrees.

 

 

(btw i will post the next qustions after I see the answer. May the best player win!!)

By equal arcs, angle EPF is 212 degrees.

arc EH = arc FG

\(x^2 - 2x = 56 - 3x\\ x^2 + x - 56 = 0\\ (x + 8)(x - 7) = 0\\ x = -8\text{(rej.) or }x = 7\\ \)

Both arcs are 35 degrees.

 

arc EPF = \(360^\circ - 70^\circ - 2\cdot 35^\circ = \boxed{220^\circ}\)
