Transcribed Image Text:### Example 2: Finding Values for Circle OP
Given:
- \( m\overset{\frown}{AC} = (4x)^\circ \)
- \( m\overset{\frown}{BC} = (x + 78)^\circ \)
Find the following values:
A) \( m\overset{\frown}{AC} = \)
B) \( m\overset{\frown}{DC} = \)
C) \( m\overset{\frown}{AB} = \)
D) \( m\angle DPA = \)
### Diagram Explanation
The accompanying diagram depicts a circle with center \( P \). Points \( A \), \( B \), \( C \), and \( D \) are on the circumference. The lines \( AP \), \( BP \), and \( DP \) are radii of the circle, and \( DC \) is a chord perpendicular to the diameter at point \( P \).
### Rule 2
"If a diameter (or radius) is perpendicular to a chord, then it bisects the chord and the arc."
