The angle between a tangent to a circle and a chord through the point of contact is 55°. The measure of the arc intercepted by this angle is
A. 55°
B. 110°
C. 125°
D. 27.5°
A. 55°
B. 110°
C. 125°
D. 27.5°
Best answer
Answer: B. 110°
By the tangent secant angle theorem, the angle is half the intercepted arc, so the arc is \(2 \times 55° = 110°\).
