Answer:

the value of x is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Tangent chord angle = half of intercepted arc

4x+19 = half of minor arc DE

[tex]4x+19 = \frac{1}{2} \ of \ minor \ arc \ DE[/tex]

Multiply by 2 on both sides

minor arc DE= 2(4x+19)= 8x + 38

sum of angle in a circle is 360 degree

minor arc DE + major arc DE = 360

[tex]8x + 38 + 28x-2= 360[/tex]

[tex]36x + 36= 360[/tex]

Subtract 36 from both sides

[tex]36x=324[/tex]

Divide both sides by 36

x=9
