The height of a tree is 10
10
meters long and it grows 1
1
cm in a year.
Then its height after one year = 10
10
meters 1
1
cm
Its height after 3
3
years = 10
10
meters 3
3
cm
Its height after 6
6
years = 10
10
meters 6
6
cm
Its height after x
x
years = 10
10
meters x
x
cm
Where x
x
represents an unknown number. From the last line, we can find height of the tree after a certain number of years by taking x
x
equal to that number. For example, we simply let x=15
x
=
15
, 25
25
and 55
55
. Thus, the value of x
x
depends on our choice. We can give x
x
any value or number we want. In other words, the value of x
x
is not fixed, it varies from one situation to the other. Therefore, we call x
x
a variable whereas 10
10
is a fixed number whole value does not change. So 10
10
therefore is called a constant.

Answer:
Let P be the external point. O be the origin. join O and P get OP and nearest point on the circle from P be A.
Let Q be the point onthe circle in which, tangent make 90° with radius at Q.
PQ = 8 and OQ = 6
we get a right angled triangle PQO right angled at Q.
so, OP^2 = OQ^2 + PQ^2= 8^2 + 6^2 = 64 + 36 =1==
therefore OP =10cm
we need nearest point from P, which is PA
PA = OP - OA= 10 -6=4cm
Example question: There are 38 students in a baseball club. The coach needs to split them up into equal groups of 4. How many groups can be made? How many kids are left over?
Answer: You would make groups of 4 to get your quotient (9). Then whatever is NOT in a group is your left over.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A is the hyp. And b/c are the sides
A²=b²+c²=3²+2²=9+4=13
Now take the square root of 13 as the answer
