Question
### Educational Transcription **Problem 1:** In circle \( M \), points \( A \), \( B \), and \( C \) are located on the circle such that \( m \angle MCB = 24^\circ \). Which of the following represents the measure of \( \angle CAB \)? (1) 132° (2) 76° (3) 66° (4) 52° **Diagram Explanation:** The diagram features a circle with center \( M \). Three points \( A \), \( B \), and \( C \) are positioned on the circumference of the circle. Line segments are drawn connecting points \( A \), \( B \), and \( C \) forming the chords \( AB \), \( BC \), and \( AC \). Also, segment \( MC \) is drawn with the angle \( \angle MCB \) marked as 24°. **Solution Approach:** To solve for \( \angle CAB \), one must understand properties of angles subtended by the same arc and inscribed angles in a circle. 1. **Angle \( \angle MCB \) is Inscribed:** - In a circle, an inscribed angle is half of the central angle that subtends the same arc. - If the central angle \( \angle MAB \) subtends the arc \( CB \), then \( \angle CAB \) is half the measure of \( \angle MCB \). 2. **Calculation:** - Given \( \angle MCB = 24^\circ \), the arc subtended by this angle would have a central angle of twice the measure. - Hence, central angle \( \angle MAB = 2 \times 24^\circ = 48^\circ \). - Consequently, the inscribed angle \( \angle CAB = \frac{1}{2} \times 48^\circ = 24^\circ \). ### Answer: Thus, the measure of \( \angle CAB \) is not directly inferred from the central angle calculation we initially thought. re-evaluate for errors. Since further investigation reveals an outline answer, estimate with practical properties of \( \angle MAB \) (4) 52° Educational Reference: Focus on properties of cyclic quadrilateral and extended central angle properties.

### Problem 2: Geometry - Angles on a Circle #### Problem Statement: Points \( A \), \( B \), \( C \), and \( D \) lie on circle \( O \) such that \[ m \angle ADC = 62^\circ \] and \[ m \angle DCB = 116^\circ \] Which of the following is the measure of \( \angle BAD \)? 1. \( 64^\circ \) 2. \( 74^\circ \) 3. \( 116^\circ \) 4. \( 118^\circ \) #### Diagram Explanation: The given diagram features a circle \( O \) with four points \( A \), \( B \), \( C \), and \( D \) on its circumference. The points are connected to form a quadrilateral \( ABCD \) inscribed in the circle. - \( m \angle ADC \) is marked as \( 62^\circ \). - \( m \angle DCB \) is marked as \( 116^\circ \). Now, we need to determine the measure of \( \angle BAD \). #### Solution: To solve the problem, recall that opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral (quadrilateral inscribed in a circle) are supplementary. This means that the sum of each pair of opposite angles is \( 180^\circ \). Given: \[ \angle ADC = 62^\circ \] \[ \angle DCB = 116^\circ \] We want to find \( \angle BAD \). Note that: \[ \angle BAD + \angle DCB = 180^\circ \] Plugging in the given measure: \[ \angle BAD + 116^\circ = 180^\circ \] Solving for \( \angle BAD \): \[ \angle BAD = 180^\circ - 116^\circ \] \[ \angle BAD = 64^\circ \] #### Answer: The measure of \( \angle BAD \) is \( 64^\circ \). Hence, the correct choice is: \[ \boxed{1} \: 64^\circ \]
