document.write( "I'm working with secant lines and tangent lines, major arcs and minor arcs within a circle. I have a problem, in this equation there is a circle with tangent lines on either side and the major arc measures 192 degrees, they want me to solve for X which is the angle with the tangent lines? I have tried to solve it the way they showed us in our notes, but I keep coming up with the wrong answer, please help? </SPAN>\n" );
