Answer:
[tex]B)\ x=43[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
One is given a circle with many secants within the circle. Please note that a secant refers to any line in a circle that intersects the circle at two points. A diameter is the largest secant in the circle, it passes through the circle's midpoint. One property of a diameter is, if a triangle inscribed in a circle has a side that is a diameter of a circle, then the triangle is a right triangle. One can apply this to the given triangle by stating the following:
[tex]x+47+90=180[/tex]
Simplify,
[tex]x+47+90=180[/tex]
[tex]x+137=180[/tex]
Inverse operations,
[tex]x+137=180[/tex]
[tex]x=43[/tex]
