PART TWO SOLUTIONS: 
1a. Reject x = -1, therefore {6}    
1b. (tan x csc2x)/(1 + tan2x) =  (tan x csc2x)/sec2x = tan x (csc2x / sec2x) = tan x (cos2x / sin2x) =
      tan x cot2x = cot x
2. {120°, 180°, 240°}
3. let x = m arc AB, 234 - x = m arc BC. Therefore, 234 - x = 2x - 54;  -3x = -288; and x = 96
    Then m arc BC = 138, m arc AD = 42, m arc CD = 84 (Hint: fill in all the arc measures in diagram)
    a. m arc AB = 96
    b. m<ABD = (1/2)m arc AD =  (1/2) 42 = 21
    c. m<BPC = (1/2)(m arc BC - m arc AD) = (1/2)(138 - 42) = 48
   d. m<AEB = (1/2)(m arc AB + m arc CD) = (1/2)(96 + 84) = 90
   
e. m<ADP = 180 - m<CDA = 180  - (1/2)m arc ABC = 180 - (1/2)234 = 63
