Answer:

C. $54^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a circle O. AB and AC are tangent of our given circle.

Since angle B is formed by tangents outside our given circle, so we will use tangent-tangent theorem.

Tangent-Tangent theorem states that when an angle is formed outside the circle by two tangents, then the measure of angle equals half the difference of its corresponding arcs.

$m\angle B=\frac{\text{Major arc - Minor arc}}{2}$

$m\angle B=\frac{234^o-126^o}{2}$

$m\angle B=\frac{108^o}{2}$

$m\angle B=54^o$

Therefore, the measure of angle B is 54 degrees and option C is the correct choice.

Which expression is equivalent to (4g3h2k4)3

RSB [31]

Answer:

d) $8g^{6}h^{4} k^{12} - (h^{25} k^{15} )$

$\frac{(4g^{3} h^{2}k^{4} )^{3} }{8g^{3}h^{2} } - (h^{5} k^{3} )^{5}$ $= 8g^{6}h^{4} k^{12} - (h^{25} k^{15} )$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Given expression

= $\frac{(4g^{3} h^{2}k^{4} )^{3} }{8g^{3}h^{2} } - (h^{5} k^{3} )^{5}$

By using

(ab)ⁿ = aⁿbⁿ

$\frac{a^{m} }{a^{n} } = a^{m-n}$

= $\frac{(4)^{3} g^{9} h^{6}k^{12} ) }{8g^{3}h^{2} } - (h^{5} k^{3} )^{5}$

After simplification , we get

$= 8g^{9}g^{-3} h^{6} h^{-2} k^{12} - (h^{5} k^{3} )^{5}$

$= 8g^{9-3}h^{6-2} k^{12} - (h^{5} k^{3} )^{5}$

$= 8g^{6}h^{4} k^{12} - (h^{25} k^{15} )$

ACTIVITY 2 (19) Mr Duma recently inherited a rectangular plot, part of the estate left by his late father. The plot with the fol

seraphim [82]

The sum of the lengths of three sides of the rectangle, gives the length

of the fencing, while one third of the rectangle area is for the pavement.

Responses:

Project A: The formula for the length of the fencing is, L = 4·x - 1

Project B: Length of the fancy wall = 2·x + 1

$Project \ C:Area \ of \ the \ paving = \underline{ \dfrac{2\cdot x^2 }{3} - \dfrac{x }{3} - \dfrac{1}{3}}$

<h3>Which method can be used to find the length and area of paving from the given equations?</h3>

Project A: Let QP and SR represent the longest sides of the rectangle, we have;

PQ = SR = 2·x + 1

Given parameters are;

Length of the rectangular plot = 2·x + 1

Width of the rectangular plot = x - 1

Vertices of the rectangular plot are; QPSR

Project A: Let QP and SR represent the longest sides of the rectangle, we have;

PQ = SR = 2·x + 1

Which gives;

SP = QR = x - 1

The length of the fencing, L = SP + PQ + QR = x - 1 + 2·x + 1 + x - 1 = 4·x - 1

The formula for the length of the fencing is, L =<u> 4·x - 1</u>

Project B: The front side is SR

Therefore;

Length of the fancy wall = <u>2·x + 1</u>

Project C:

Area, A = Length × Width

Area of the plot, A = (2·x + 1) × (x - 1) = 2·x² - x - 1

$Area \ of \ the \ paving = \dfrac{1}{3} \times \left(2 \cdot x^2 - x - 1\right) = \underline{ \dfrac{2\cdot x^2 }{3} - \dfrac{x }{3} - \dfrac{1}{3}}$
