Answer:

x = 30º

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the midpoint of OP, R.

The triangle of OQR would be an equilateral triangle since OQ = OR as they are both radii and is OQR and ORQ are 60º, ROQ is also 60º, making the triangle equilateral. Because tangents meet a circle at 90º, the angle RQP would be 30º and since angles on a straight line add to 180º, the angle QRP would be 180-ORQ which is 120º. Now we know the 2 angles in triangle of QRP so we can work out the final angle since angles in a triangle add to 180º. So:

180 - 120 - 30 = 30º.

x = 30º

This would also prove that QR and RP are the same since base angles in an isosceles triangle are equal.

Simplify the expression. Write your answer as a power.<br><br> (−5/7)^8⋅(−5/7)^9
dem82 [27]

Answer: (-\frac{5}{7})^{17}

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression can be simplified by applying the a properties of exponents, specifically the Product of powers, which states that:

(b^a)(b^c)=b^{(a+c)

Where b is the base and a and c are exponents.

 Then simplify it by rewriting the base (-\frac{5}{7}) and adding the exponents of the expression (8 and 9).

You will get the expression simplified and written as a power:

(-\frac{5}{7})^8(-\frac{5}{7})^9=(-\frac{5}{7})^{(8+9)}=(-\frac{5}{7})^{17}
