Any quadrilateral has an angle sum of 360°.

AFE = 90°
(tangent is perpendicular to radius/diameter)


Since we have a regular octagon, and angle sum of polygon = (n-2) x 180°, where n is the number of sides,

Every interior angle of the octagon is identical in measure

(8 - 2) x 180°
= 1080°

1080° ÷ 8 = 135°

so ∠ABC = 135° since it's one of the interior angles.

OAB and OBC are congruent isosceles triangles

(SSS congruency.
OA = OB = OC = radius of circle.
OB is common.
AB = BC since they are identical sides of a regular octagon)


So ∠OBA = ∠OBC = ∠OAB = ∠OCB

Since ∠ABC= ∠OBA + ∠OBC,

∠ABC = 2∠OBA

∠OBA = ½∠ABC
= 135° ÷ 2
= 67.5°

So ∠OAB is also 67.5°

∠FEB

= angle sum of quadrilateral AFEB - ∠AFE - ∠OAB - ∠ABC

= 360° - 90° - 67.5° - 135°

= 67.5°
