Given:

The measure of [tex]\widehat{ADB}[/tex] is 162°

We need to determine the measure of ∠EAB

Measure of ∠EAB:

Let us determine the measure of ∠EAB

We know that, "If a tangent and chord intersect at a point on a circle, then the measure of each angle formed is half the measure of its intercepted arc".

Applying the above theorem, we get;

[tex]\angle EAB=\frac{1}{2} m(\widehat{ADB})[/tex]

Substituting [tex]\widehat{ADB}=162^{\circ}[/tex], we get;

[tex]\angle EAB=\frac{1}{2}\times 162^{\circ}[/tex]

Dividing, we get;

[tex]\angle EAB=81^{\circ}[/tex]

Thus, the measure of ∠EAB is 81°
