Which is a secant of circle A?

Mathematics

sergey [27]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: line CD (fourth choice)

====================================================

Let's go through the choices one by one

1) Segment AB is a radius, which is not a secant line. We can rule this out.

2) line DE is a tangent line which only touches the circle at exactly one spot. We need something that cuts the circle in 2 spots for it to be a secant line. This can also be crossed off the list.

3) segment HG is a chord, which is fairly close to a secant line, but it must extend infinitely in both directions. In other words, it needs to be a line instead of a line segment. This is crossed off the list.

4) line CD is a secant line. It is a geometric line in that it goes on forever in both directions (it's not a segment, and not a ray either). Also, this line crosses the circle at 2 points, which contrasts it from a tangent line. This is the answer we want.

A metallic spherical ball of radius 14 cm is being melted and recast it into spherical balls of radius 2 cm. How many spherical
mojhsa [17]

Volume of sphere = 4/3 x pi x r^3

Volume of large sphere:

4/3 x 3.14 x 14^3 = 11488.21 cubic cm

Volume of smaller sphere:

4/3 x 3.14 x 2^3 = 33.49 cubic cm

Number of small spheres = volume of large sphere/ volume of small sphere

11488.21 / 33.49 = 343.03

Round to 343 small spheres
