Answer:
BG = 3; GE = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The centroid of a triangle divides the median into two parts in the ratio 1 : 2. That is, the short segment is 1/3 the length of the median, and the long segment is 2/3 the length of the median.
BG = 1/3·BE = 9/3 = 3
GE = 2/3·BE = 2/3·9 = 18/3 = 6
The idea is to use the tangent line to
at
in order to approximate
.
We have


so the linear approximation to
is

Hence
and
.
Then

Step-by-step explanation:
AO = DO
2x+3 = 5x
3 = 5x-2x
3 = 3x
x = 1
DO = 5(1)=5cm
AC = 2×5 = 10cm
BC =√10²-8²
= √100-64
=√36
=6 cm
therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle
= 2×(8+6) = 2(14) = 28 cm
Keep Change Flip!!!
Keep: the first fraction 5 or 5/1
Change: Division sign to multiplication sign
Flip (reciprocal): the second fraction
So you get 5/1*9/2= 45/2 which simplified to 22 1/2
