Using the circle theorems, the value of z is 45

<h3>Circle Geometry </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the value of z

From the given information,

KM is a diameter

∴ ∠KLM = 90° (<em>Angle in a semicircle</em>)

Also, ΔKLM is isosceles

∴ ∠KML = ∠MKL (<em>Base angles of an isosceles triangle</em>)

Then,

∠KML + ∠MKL + ∠KLM = 180° (<em>Sum of angles in a triangle</em>)

2× ∠KML + 90° = 180°

2× ∠KML = 180° - 90°

2× ∠KML = 90°

∠KML = 90°/2

∠KML = 45°

Now, we can observe that

z° = ∠KML (<em>Angles in alternate segment</em>)

But,

∠KML = 45°

∴ z = 45

Hence, the value of z is 45

Find the equation of the line perpendicular to y = -2x + 6 that goes through (2, 10).
neonofarm [45]
If the line is perpendicular, then its slope is the reciprocal of the given line's slope. This new line's slope is 1/2. We plug it into slope-intercept form

y = 1/2x + b

Now plug in the given point of (2, 10) and solve for b. 

10 = 1/2(2) + b
10 = 1 + b
9 = b

So your equation is y = 1/2x + 9

Find the least common denominator of the fractions 5/12 and 2/5.
Gemiola [76]
The LCD (least common denominator) is the lowest number that both denominators (12 and 5) go into. The lowest number that both 5 and 12 go into is 60. The LCD of the two fractions is 60.
