[tex]\fbox{\begin{minipage}{8.8em}Option D is correct\end{minipage}}[/tex]
Explanation:
Here, we state again the definition of inscribed angle in circle:
(1) An inscribed angle has the vertex on the circle and the sides are chords.
=> In the picture shown, angle ELK is inscribed angle with vertex L and LE and LK are chords.
(2)An inscribed angle also creates an intercepted arc whose endpoints are on the angle.
=> Inscribed angle ELK creates intercepted arc EK.
(3) According to the Inscribed Angle Theorem, the measure of intercepted arc is twice as the measure of its inscribed angle.
=> Angle ELK = (1/2) arc EK
Arc EK, whose EK is diameter, is equal to measure of half of circle, or 180 degree, in other words.
=> Angle ELK = (1/2) x 180 = 90 deg
(4) As the property of sum of 3 angles inside a triangle, this sum is equal to 180 degree.
=> Considering triangle ELK:
ELK + LEK + LKE = 180 deg
or
90 + 55 + LKE = 180 deg
or
LKE = 180 - 90 - 55 = 35 deg
Hope this helps!
