I see you've sent the image again. You asked for "number 9" previously, which was from a different image. I'll re-solve that problem for you now.

Here's how to find the values of a,b,a, b, and cc for :

  1. Find aa.

    Theorem: Angle in a semicircle is 90∘90^\circ.
    Since AB is a diameter, the angle ∠ACB\angle ACB subtended by the diameter at point C on the circumference is 90∘90^\circ.
    Theorem: Sum of angles in a triangle is 180∘180^\circ.
    In △ABC\triangle ABC, the sum of its interior angles is 180∘180^\circ. We have ∠CAB=18∘\angle CAB = 18^\circ, ∠ACB=90∘\angle ACB = 90^\circ, and ∠CBA=a\angle CBA = a.

    18∘+a+90∘=180∘18^\circ + a + 90^\circ = 180^\circ a+108∘=180∘a + 108^\circ = 180^\circ a=180∘−108∘a = 180^\circ - 108^\circ a=72∘a = 72^\circ
  2. Find bb.

    Theorem: Angles subtended by the same arc at the circumference are equal.
    The angle bb is ∠CAD\angle CAD. This angle subtends arc CD.
    The angle ∠CBD\angle CBD also subtends arc CD. From the diagram, ∠CBD=50∘\angle CBD = 50^\circ.
    Since both angles subtend the same arc, they are equal.

    b=∠CBDb = \angle CBD b=50∘b = 50^\circ
  3. Find cc.

    Theorem: Opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral sum to 180∘180^\circ.
    ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral because all its vertices lie on the circle.
    The angle cc is ∠BCD\angle BCD. Its opposite angle in the cyclic quadrilateral is ∠DAB\angle DAB.
    Therefore, ∠DAB+∠BCD=180∘\angle DAB + \angle BCD = 180^\circ.
    First, calculate the measure of ∠DAB\angle DAB:

    ∠DAB=∠DAC+∠CAB\angle DAB = \angle DAC + \angle CAB ∠DAB=b+18∘\angle DAB = b + 18^\circ

    Substitute the value of bb from Step 2:

    ∠DAB=50∘+18∘\angle DAB = 50^\circ + 18^\circ ∠DAB=68∘\angle DAB = 68^\circ

    Now, substitute this value into the cyclic quadrilateral property:

    68∘+c=180∘68^\circ + c = 180^\circ c=180∘−68∘c = 180^\circ - 68^\circ c=112∘c = 112^\circ

    Final values:
    a=72∘a = \boxed{72^\circ}
    b=50∘b = \boxed{50^\circ}
    c=112∘c = \boxed{112^\circ}
