arc BC = 2(48) = 96...remember....an inscribed angle measures 1/2 of its intercepted arc

Now...I'm going to ask you some questions so you can finish this...

What is the measure of the arc intercepted by the inscribed angle B..isn't it 110 degrees??? (What is the name of this arc ???) And....what did I just tell you about the measure of an inscribed angle??

And arc AB must be 360 -arc BC - arc AC = ????

So, angle C would be 1/2 of arc AB....so angle C = ????

Post again if you're having trouble with this one.......but try to solve some of it, if you can....

Maybe this is my shortfall but what angle is 110 degrees ?  I don't understand.

When I want to use a picture I almost always use the "snipping tool" that was automatically included with my Window 7 operating system.  It is easy to use and then the picture can just be uploaded.

Maybe this information will help you?

Melody, I believe he/she is saying that the arc intercepted by angle ABC (minor arc AC) is 110 degrees.
