If the measure of an intercepted arc is 118°, and the measure of the inscribed angle is 2x - 1, what is the equation to find the value of x?

2 (2x - 1) = 118 I think

By using the inscribed angle and intercepted arc relationship, the equation to find the value of x is  [tex]4x-2 = 118^{0}[/tex]

What is measure of an inscribed angle?

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

i.e., m<ABC = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] m<AOC

Given

Measure of an intercepted arc = [tex]118^{0}[/tex]

Measure of an inscribed angle = 2x - 1

m<ABC = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] m<AOC

Substitute values in above formula

⇒[tex]\frac{1}{2} (118)^{0}[/tex] = [tex](2x-1)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]4x-2 = 118^{0}[/tex]

Hence, By using the inscribed angle and intercepted arc relationship, the equation to find the value of x is  [tex]4x-2 = 118^{0}[/tex]
