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.

Question 4 options:

Arada [10]

Answer:

{ b, d, f }

Step-by-step explanation:

In the roster form we write the elements of a set by separating commas and enclose them within {} bracket.

We have give,

$U = \{a, b, c, d, e, f, g\}$ ,

$A = \{a, c, e, g\}$ ,

$B = \{a, b, c, d\}$ ,

$\because A' = U - A$

$\implies A' = \{a, b, c, d, e, f, g\} - \{a, c, e, g\}$

= { b, d, f }

What is the area of a triangle for one of the legs being 3in and the hypotenuse being 9in

elena55 [62]

The area of a triangle for one of the legs being 3 inches and the hypotenuse being 9 inches is 12.727 square inches

Solution:

Given that to find area of a triangle for one of the legs being 3 inches and the hypotenuse being 9 inches

From given information,

Let "c" = hypotenuse = 9 inches

Let "a" = length of one of the leg of triangle = 3 inches

To find: area of triangle

The area of triangle when hypotenuse and length of one side of triangle is given:

$A = \frac{1}{2} a \sqrt{c^2 - a^2}$

Where, "c" is the length of hypotenuse

"a" is the length of one side of triangle

Substituting the given values we get,

$A = \frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times \sqrt{9^2 - 3^2}$

$A =\frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times \sqrt{81-9}\\\\A =\frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times \sqrt{72}\\\\A =\frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 8.48528\\\\A = \frac{1}{2} \times 25.45584\\\\A = 12.727$

Thus area of triangle is 12.727 square inches
