The sum of the vertical angles XOE and DOC formed at the intersection of lines XC and DE is 76 degrees. Find XOD.

1. Considering that the vertical angles are equal (according to their properties), and their sum is equal to 76 ° in

the condition of the problem, we calculate their value:

∠ХЕ = ∠SOD = 76 °: 2 = 38 °.

2. Taking into account that ∠XOE and DOC are adjacent angles, and their total value is

180 °, we calculate the degree measure ∠DOC:

∠DOC = 180 ° – ∠XOE = 180 ° – 38 ° = 142 °.

Answer: DOH is 142 °.
