Applying the angles of intersecting secants theorem, the measure of angle ACB is: 16°.

<h3>What is the Angles of Intersecting Secants Theorem?</h3>

The angles of intersecting secants theorem states that the angle formed by two lines (secants or a tangent and a secant) that intersect outside a circle equals half the difference of the measure of the intercepted arcs.

Find m(XA) based on the inscribed angle theorem:

m(XA) = 2(m∠CBA)

Substitute

m(XA) = 2(42)

m(XA) = 84°

Based on the angles of intersecting secants theorem, we would have:

m∠ACB = 1/2[m(AB) - m(XA)]

Substitute

m∠ACB = 1/2[100 - 84]

m∠ACB = 16°

Therefore, applying the angles of intersecting secants theorem, the measure of angle ACB is: 16°.

HELPPP PLEASEEE !!! John draws AABD, with CD as the perpendicular bisector of AB such that AACD and ABCD are congruent to each o
laila [671]

Answer:

The points on the perpendicular bisector of a side of a triangle are equidistant from the vertices of the side it bisects.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is the last option. The perpendicular bisector theorem states that if  a point lies on  the bisector of a segment it is equidistant from the endpoints.

Meaning

If a perpendicular bisector is a line of the side of the triangle , it bisects the sides forming two right angles .

The first three choices are incorrect because

1) the figure shows a triangle bisected into two triangles and option 1 tells about 1 isosceles triangle.

2) The base angles of any triangle can be different or same .

3) the three perpendicular bisectors meet at a point called the circumeter. We have 1 perpendicual bisector which is dividing the triangle into two equal triangles.

The graph of the equation below is a circle. What is the length of the radius of the circle? (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 = 17^2
djverab [1.8K]
The correct answer is:  [D]:  "17" .
______________________________________________________
The radius is:  " 17" .
______________________________________________________
Note:
______________________________________________________
The formula/equation for the graph of a circle is:
______________________________________________________
   (x − h)²  +<span> </span> (y − k)² =  r²  ;

in which:  

          " (h, k) " ; are the coordinate of the point of the center of the circle;

           "r" is the length of the "radius" ; for which we want to determine;
_______________________________________________________
We are given the following equation of the graph of a particular circle:
_______________________________________________________

          →  (x − 4)²  +  (y + 12)² =  17² ;

which is in the correct form:

→  " (x − h)²  +  (y − k)² =  r²  " ;

 in which:  " h = 4 " ;

                  " k = -12" ;

                   "r = 17 " ;  which is the "radius" ; which is our answer.

          →  { Note that: "k = NEGATIVE  12" } ;

→  Since the equation <u>for this particular circle</u> contains the expression:             _________________________________________________________    
                      →     "...(y + k)² ..." ;  
         
[as opposed to the standard form:  "...(y − k)² ..." ] ; 
_________________________________________________________
→  And since the coordinates of the center of a circle are represented by:
            " (h, k) " ;  
 
→  which are:  " (4, -12) " ;  (<u>for this particular circle</u>) ; 
_________________________________________________________
→  And since:  " k = -12 " ;  (<u>for this particular circle</u>) ;
_________________________________________________________
then: 

 " [y − k ] ²  =  [ y − (k) ] ²  =  " [ y − (-12) ] ² " ;
                                    
                                         =  " ( y + 12)² "  ;
                                    
{NOTE:  Since:  "subtracting a negative" is the same as "adding a positive" ;

           →   So;  " [ y − (-12 ] " = " [ y + (⁺ 12) ] " = " (y + 12) "
___________________________________________________  
Note:  The above explanation is relevant to confirm that the equation is, in fact, in "proper form"; to ensure that the:  radius, "r" ;  is:  "17" .
___________________________________________________
           →    Since:  "r  =  17 " ;  

           →  The radius is:  " 17 " ;

          which is:  Answer choice:  [D]:  "17" .
