In the diagram shown of circle A, tangent MB is drawn along with chords BAC and BF . Secant MFE intersects BAC at G. It is known that angle FBC = 52 and arc BE = 138 .
(a) Determine measure of arc BF
(b) Determine measure of angle M
(c) Determine measure of angle BGE
(d) Determine measure of angle MFB

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) ∠FBM is the complement of ∠FBC, so is ...

  ∠FBM = 90° -52° = 38°

The measure of arc BF is twice this angle, so is ...

  arc BF = 2∠FBM = 2(38°)

  arc BF = 76°

__

(b) ∠M is half the difference between the measures of arcs BE and BF, so is ...

  ∠M = (1/2)(138° -76°) = 62°/2

  ∠M = 31°

__

(c) arc FC is the supplement to arc BF, so has measure ...

  arc FC = 180° -arc BF = 180° -76° = 104°

∠BGE is half the sum of arcs BE and FC, so is ...

  ∠BGE = (1/2)(arc BE +arc FC) = (138° +104°)/2

  ∠BGE = 121°

__

(d) ∠MFB is the remaining angle in ∆MFB, so has measure ...

  ∠MFB = 180° -∠M -∠FBM = 180° -31° -38°

  ∠MFB = 111°
