A tangent is basically a line that 'just touches' a curve - i.e. it is in a place where it approaches the curve, and a single point on the line touches a single point on the curve. It's quite an awkward definition since 'just touches' means only one infinitely small part of the line touches the curve, but it's quite obvious when you see it.
For that reason, I have attached a little diagram I improvised just now to help explain it. The red dot is where they meet, and the straight line is tangential to the circle.

Marcella would not be able to win the competition because her kite string (159.75 feet) is less than 162 feet.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Trigonometric ratio is used to show the relationship between the sides and angles of a right angled triangle.

Let l represent the length of the string, hence:

sin(28) = 75/l

l = 159.75 feet

Marcella would not be able to win the competition because her kite string (159.75 feet) is less than 162 feet.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, isolate x by adding 2 to both sides.

9 = 3/8x

Then, multiply 8 to both sides.

72 = 3x

Then, divide both sides by 3.
