1. Find the value of x to the nearest tenth.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lunna [17]2 years ago
7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

a perpendicular line on a chord of a circle going through the center of the circle splits the chord in half.

so, x is 2 times the missing leg of the right-angled triangle. and we are using Pythagoras :

c² = a² + b²

c being the Hypotenuse (the baseline opposite of the 90° angle).

so,

8² = 3² + (x/2)²

64 = 9 + x²/4

55 = x²/4

220 = x²

x = 14.83239697... ≈ 14.8

2.

I assume x is again the length of the whole chord (the diagram is not really clear in that regard).

the chord length using the distance from the center of the circle is

2 × sqrt(r² - d²)

r being the radius, d being the perpendicular distance from the center.

remember, the radius is half the diameter.

so, in our case

2 × sqrt ((12/2)² - 3²) = 2 × sqrt(36 - 9) = 2×sqrt(27) =

= 10.39230485... ≈ 10.4

3.

c is the supplementary angle to 76°, as the baseline of the abd triangle is the diameter of the circle, so c+76 are a half-circle.

c = 180 - 76 = 104°

the circle theorem says, the angle at the center is twice the angle at the circumference.

so,

a = 76/2 = 38°

similarly,

b = 104/2 = 52°

and

d = 180 - 38 - 52 = 90°

as it must be, as any inscribed triangle over the diameter of a circle must be right-angled.

4.

like in 3.

c = 150/2 = 75°

a + 90 + 150 = 360 (as together they are a full circle)

a = 360 - 90 - 150 = 120°

as a is the arc angle of the chord, it is also the inner angle at the center point of the triangle chord-center.

this triangle is an isoceles triangle (both invisible legs and therefore also both angles to the baseline are the same).

the sum of all angles in a triangle is 180°.

so, both leg angles of that triangle are

(180 - 120)/2 = 60/2 = 30°

b is the complementary angle to 30°, as this outside line is the tangent to the circle at the chord end (at a right angle to the triangle leg).

so,

b = 90 - 30 = 60°

5.

similar to 4.

x + 95 + 72 = 360

x = 360 - 95 - 72 = 193°

and for y let's consider the tangent secant angle theorem :

y = (arc angle of "outside" arc - arc angle of "inside"arc)/2

y = (193 - 72)/2 = 121/2 = 60.5°

A Russian blue kitten costs $150 more than Manx kitten 9 blue kittens and 8 Manx kittens costs. Total of 14,100 write down a alg
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The equations 9x+8y=14100 and x = y+150 are in the simplest form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Russian blue kitten costs $150 more than Manx kitten.

Cost of 9 blue kittens and  8 Manx kittens = $14100

Let,

x be the price of one Russian blue kitten.

y be the price of one Manx kitten.

According to given statement;

9x+8y=14100

x = y+150

Hence,

The equations 9x+8y=14100 and x = y+150 are in the simplest form.

Use long division to determine the decimal equivalent of fraction with numerator 2 and denominator 3. 0 point 6 bar 0 point 7 ba
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The correct answer is A

0.\bar6

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine the decimal equivalence of \frac{2}{3}.


We perform the long division as shown in the attachment.


Note that in carry out the long division, the denominator which is 3, will be outside the long division sign, while the numerator which is 2, will be inside the long division sign.

We see that the quotient of our long division is 0.6666....


We can rewrite this as 0.\bar6


Therefore \frac{2}{3}=0.\bar6.
