The tangent line to a circle makes an angle of 90 degrees with the radius.
If |FG| is tangent to circle E. then
30^2 = 26^2 + 17^2
which is not true.
Therefore, line segment FG is not tangent to circle E.

The slant height is used to find the volume of a square pyramid. true or false

alexandr1967 [171]

The answer is false.

For a square pyramid, the volume is calculated by 1/3*B*h. The height should touch the tip and lie perpendicular to the base. Slant height is used for surface area, not volume.

Twelve runners are competing in a race. In how many different ways can the first,second,and third place trophies be awarded

zubka84 [21]

Since only one person can finish in first place, one in second, etc., the total number of placers is 12x11x10, or 1320 different ways the 12 racers can finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd....

Answer:

A. A(n) = 150 • (0.74)^n–1 ; 33.29 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric sequence.

a%5B1%5D=1.5m=150cm, r=0.74

The formula is

a%5Bn%5D=a%5B1%5Dr%5E%28n-1%29

Just substitute a1 = 150cm and r = 0.74

a%5Bn%5D=150%280.74%29%5E%28n-1%29

That's the rule.

For the second part, substitute n = 6

cm.
