Answer:

C. 15 cm

Explanation:

The radius is the same in a circle. PA and PB has same length of 8 cm.

In order to find AC, find the length of PA and PC.

Here given:

  • PA = 8 cm
  • PC = PB + BC = 8 cm + 9 cm = 17 cm

Hence solve using Pythagoras theorem:

  • a² + b² = c²
  • AC² + PA² = PC²
  • AC² + 8² = 17²
  • AC² = 289 - 64
  • AC = √225
  • AC = 15

Radius hits any tangent at 90°

So

  • AC²=PC²-AP²
  • AC²=(9+8)²-8²
  • AC²=17²-8²
  • AC²=289-64
  • AC²=225
  • AC=15cm

Answer:

Start

A2

B2

B1

C1

C2

D2

D3

D4

C4

END

Step-by-step explanation:

Start (A3)

x is equal to 141 because they are alternate interior angles.

A2. x is equal to 39 because they are corresponding angles.

B2. x would be supplementary to 41 because the angle that x supplements is corresponding to 41.

41 + x = 180 due to the linear pair postulate. Therefore, x = 139.

B1. x would be supplementary to 82 because they are consecutive exterior angles.

82 + x = 180 due to the linear pair postulate. Therefore, x = 98.

C1. x = 102 due to the vertical angles theorem.

C2. x would be supplementary to 130 because the angle that x supplements is equal to 130 (Alternate Exterior Angles).

130 + x = 180, x = 50.

D2. x = 74, corresponding angles.

D3. x = 83, corresponding angles.

D4. x = 95, corresponding

C4. x is supplementary to 18 because of the consecutive interior angles theorem.

x = 162

For triangle ABC, find the measure of AB given me∠ A = 55 degrees, m∠b= 44 degrees, and b=6. . A. 45.22. B.96.68. C.88.19. .
jekas [21]
There exist a similar question where b = 68 instead of 6. First, determine the measure of the third angle, angle C,
                               m∠c = 180 - (55° + 44°) = 81°
Let x be the side AB, that which is opposite to angle C. Through the Sine Law,
                                  68 / sin 44° = x / sin 81°
From the equation, the value of x is equal to 96.68. Thus, the answer is letter B.
