Answer:

  1. 54°
  2. both are 73°
  3. x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Some useful relations are ...

  A triangle inscribed in a semicircle is a right triangle.

  Acute angles in a right triangle are complementary.

  An inscribed angle is half the measure of the arc it intercepts.

  The sum of arcs around a circle is 360°; 180° around a semicircle.

__

1. Arc DF is twice the marked inscribed angle, so is 126°. Arc FE is supplementary to that, so is ...

  arc FE = 180° -126°

  arc FE = 54°

Alternate solution: arc FE is twice angle D, which is the complement of 63°.

  2(90° -63°) = 2(27°) = 54° = arc FE

__

2. Arc GJ = 360°-68° -31° -115° = 146°

  angle GHJ = angle GIJ = 146°/2 = 73°

__

3. arc UT = 2(90° -43°) = 94°

  9x -14 = 94

  9x = 108 . . . . . add 14

  x = 12 . . . . . . . . divide by 9
