Match each of the following arc lengths to the appropriate measurement in degrees.

**4. Match each of the following arc lengths to the appropriate measurement in degrees.**

The diagram shows a circle with center labeled as 'O', and four points labeled as M, W, X, and Y on the circle's circumference. The circle is divided into sections by lines connecting these points, creating arcs. The arc YD is labeled with an angle of 78°, and the arc DX is labeled with an angle of 42°.

**Note:** \( MX \) and \( WY \) are diameters of the circle.

\[
\begin{array}{l l}
1. \quad m\overset{\frown}{MY} & \quad \text{a. } 60^\circ \\
2. \quad m\overset{\frown}{DX} & \quad \text{b. } 42^\circ \\
3. \quad m\overset{\frown}{DY} & \quad \text{c. } 180^\circ \\
4. \quad m\overset{\frown}{MX} & \quad \text{d. } 78^\circ \\
\end{array}
\]

The task is to match each arc measurement with the correct angle in degrees provided in the options: 60°, 42°, 180°, and 78°. Since \( MX \) and \( WY \) are diameters, they divide the circle into two equal halves, each measuring 180°.
