Triangle inscribed in a circle

Geometry Level 2

In the diagram above, triangle A B E ABE is inscribed in the circle, and line segment D C \overline {DC} is tangent to the circle at point E E with A E C = 15 0 \angle AEC = 150^\circ .

Find the measure of A B E \angle ABE in degrees.


The answer is 30.

A E C + A E D = 180 A E D = 180 150 = 30 using alternate segment theorem, A E D = A B E = 30 \angle AEC + \angle AED = 180 \\ \implies \angle AED = 180 - 150 = 30 \\ \text{using alternate segment theorem, } \\ \angle AED = \angle ABE = 30
