I need help with this geometry question

Mathematics
1 answer:
UNO [17]1 year ago
6 0

Answer:

radius ≈ 15.5

Step-by-step explanation:

the radius is RS

the angle between a tangent and the radius at the point of contact is 90°

then Δ RST is a right triangle

using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides , then

RS² + ST² = RT² ( substitute values )

RS² + 7² = 17²

RS² + 49 = 289 ( subtract 49 from both sides )

RS² = 240 ( take square root of both sides )

RS = \sqrt{240} ≈ 15.5 ( to 1 dec. place )

Define an action adder :: io () that reads a given number of integers from the key board, one per line, and displays their sum.
aleksandrvk [35]

The program is an illustration of loops

<h3>What are loops?</h3>

Loops are program statements that are used to perform repetition

<h3>The main program</h3>

The program written in Python, where comments are used to explain each line is as follows:

#This initializes sum to 0

summ = 0

#This gets input for the first number

num = int(input())

#This is repeated while num is not -1

while num!= -1:

   #This calculates the sum

   summ+=num

   #This gets input for the num

   num = int(input())

#This prints the sum

print(summ)

In a marathon 90% runner were managed to complete it and 30% were men if 270 men completed it how many total runner began the ma
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

1000 runners

Step-by-step explanation:

Take total number of runners to be -----------x

90% of x managed to complete the marathon= 90/100 × x =0.9x

30% of those who completed the marathon were men= 30% × 0.9x

=0.3×0.9x= 0.27x

=270 men completed the marathon; this means

0.27x=270--------------------------------find x by dividing both sides by 0.27

x= 270/0.27

x=1000 runners
