Circle Gamma is the incircle of triangle ABC and is also the circumcircle of triangle XYZ. The point X is on BC, the point Y is on AB, and the point Z is on AC. If angle A=40 degrees, angle B=62 degrees, and angle C=78 degrees, what is the measure of angle YXZ?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

∠YXZ = 180 - 1/2[(180 - 62) + (180 - 78)] 

or

∠YXZ = 1/2(62 + 78)
