Answer:

x = 98

Step-by-step explanation:

The chord- chord angle of 88° is half the sum of the measures of the arcs intercepted by the angle and its vertical angle , then

88 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (x + 78) ← multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction

176 = x + 78 ( subtract 78 from both sides )

98 = x
