Answer:
E-F and E-D
C-B and C-D
Step-by-step explanation:
The circle and triangle are as shown. The options are:
- A-B and C-B
- E-F and E-D
- E-D and C-D
- A-F and E-F
- C-B and C-D
By drawing radius lines from the center of the circle to the tangent points B, D, and F, we can divide the triangle into 3 kites. Therefore, only segments that are legs of the same kite are congruent. So the answer must be E-F and E-D, and C-B and C-D.
Answer:
b = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
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, that is
b² + 12² = 15²
b² + 144 = 225 ( subtract 144 from both sides )
b² = 81 ( take the square root of both sides )
b = = 9
