The problem asks to find the value of $x$ in the given circle with center $O$. We are given that the angle at the center subtended by one arc is $80^{\circ}$, and the angle at a point on the circumference subtended by another arc is $60^{\circ}$. The angle $x$ is the angle subtended at the circumference by the same arc as the $80^{\circ}$ angle at the center.

1. Problem Description

The problem asks to find the value of xx in the given circle with center OO. We are given that the angle at the center subtended by one arc is 8080^{\circ}, and the angle at a point on the circumference subtended by another arc is 6060^{\circ}. The angle xx is the angle subtended at the circumference by the same arc as the 8080^{\circ} angle at the center.

2. Solution Steps

The angle at the center is twice the angle at the circumference subtended by the same arc.
Angle at the center = 2×2 \times Angle at the circumference
We are given that the angle at the center is 8080^{\circ}.
We have to find the angle xx at the circumference subtended by the same arc.
80=2×x80^{\circ} = 2 \times x
Divide both sides by 2:
x=802x = \frac{80^{\circ}}{2}
x=40x = 40^{\circ}

3. Final Answer

x=40x = 40^{\circ}
