Answer:

3rd Option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A circle with Center is O.

Figure is also Given.

To find: Tangent to the circle.

Tangent is a line which just touches circle at one point and passes from outside of circle.

Option 1).

Segment OP is radius of the circle. It is in interior of the circle.

Thus, This is not Tangent.

Option 2).

line ST is Secant to the circle as it passes through circle and intersect at two points. It is in interior of the circle and also in exterior of circle.

Thus, This is not Tangent.

Option 3).

Line MN is Tangent according to the definition of Tangent.

Thus, This is Tangent.

Option 4).

Segment QR is chord of the circle. It is in interior of the circle.

Thus, This is not Tangent.

Therefore, 3rd Option is correct.

In triangle XYZ, angle Y = 45º and angle Z = 60º. If XZ = 4, then what is XY?

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

$XY = 4.9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$XZ= 4$

$\angle Y = 45$

$\angle Z = 60$

Required

Determine the measure of side XY

To do this, we make use of sine law. This is as follows:

$\frac{a}{\sin\ A} = \frac{b}{\sin\ B} = \frac{c}{\sin\ C}$

In this case:

$\frac{4}{\sin(45)} = \frac{XY}{\sin(60)}$

Cross Multiply

$XY * \sin(45) = 4 * \sin(60)$

$XY * 0.7071 = 4 * 0.8660$

Make XY the subject

$XY = \frac{4 * 0.8660}{0.7071}$

$XY = \frac{3.4640}{0.7071}$

$XY = 4.89888276057$

$XY = 4.9$ -- <em>approximated</em>

George wrote an integer. The opposite of George’s integer is -53. Which of these statements about George’s integer must be true?

vlabodo [156]

The George's integer must be true for option D)I and IV.

What is integer?

A full number (not a fraction) that can be positive, negative, or zero is called an integer . -5, 1, 5, 8, 97, and 3, 043 are some examples of integers. 1.43, 1 3/4, 3.14, and other numbers are examples of non-integer numbers. Integer, which means full or whole in Latin, is the root of the English term integer. A particular category of numbers called integers includes zero, positive numbers, and negative numbers. All whole numbers, both negative and positive, and 0 are considered integers.

Here the opposite of George integer is -53.

We know that opposite value of x is -x.

Then George integer is 53.

George integer must be true for The given options I. the integer is 53 and IV.The integer has absolute value of 53.

Therefore the correct option is D) I and IV.
