Solution

The problem you've uploaded is asking to find the angle xx in a circle, applying the properties of regular polygons.

Observations:

  1. The figure shows a circle with a chord and the corresponding arc.
  2. x\angle x is inscribed in the circle.
  3. The options for xx are:
    • A) 63°
    • B) 60°
    • C) 75°
    • D) 45°
    • E) 50°

Steps to Solve:

  1. Inscribed Angle Theorem: The angle subtended by an arc at the center of a circle is twice the angle subtended at any point on the circumference by the same arc.

  2. Identify the Relevant Angles: From the diagram:

    • C1\angle C_1 is likely the angle subtended at the center by the arc.
    • x\angle x is the inscribed angle.
  3. Relation between C1\angle C_1 and x\angle x:

    • If C1\angle C_1 is the central angle, then x=12×C1\angle x = \frac{1}{2} \times \angle C_1.

Conclusion:

Without additional specific values or details in the diagram, let's assume that the circle shown is a part of a regular polygon, likely implying symmetrical angles and equal division by the chords. Based on the given options and common angles in regular polygons, the angle xx is most likely 60° (since regular polygons like equilateral triangles lead to such inscribed angles).

Thus, Option B: 60° seems to be the correct answer.

Tip:

When dealing with inscribed angles, always remember that they are half the measure of the central angle subtending the same arc. This property is crucial for solving many circle-related problems.
