Which is a secant of circle A?

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.

Findℒ{f(t)}by first using a trigonometric identity. (Write your answer as a function of s.)f(t) = 12 cost −π6
allsm [11]

Answer:

L(f(t)) = \dfrac{6}{S^2+1} [\sqrt{3} \ S +1 ]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

f(t)  = 12 cos (t- \dfrac{\pi}{6})

recall that:

cos (A-B) = cos AcosB + sin A sin B

∴

f(t) = 12 [cos\  t \  cos \dfrac{\pi}{6}+ sin \ t  \ sin \dfrac{\pi}{6}]

f(t) = 12 [cos \  t \ \dfrac{3}{2}+ sin  \ t  \ sin \dfrac{1}{2}]

f(t) = 6 \sqrt{3} \ cos \ (t) + 6 \ sin \ (t)

L(f(t)) = L ( 6 \sqrt{3} \ cos \ (t) + 6 \ sin \ (t) ]

L(f(t)) = 6 \sqrt{3} \ L [cos \ (t) ] + 6\ L [ sin \ (t) ]

L(f(t)) = 6 \sqrt{3}  \dfrac{S}{S^2 + 1^2}+ 6 \dfrac{1}{S^2 +1^2}

L(f(t)) = \dfrac{6 \sqrt{3} +6 }{S^2+1}

L(f(t)) = \dfrac{6( \sqrt{3} \ S +1 }{S^2+1}

L(f(t)) = \dfrac{6}{S^2+1} [\sqrt{3} \ S +1 ]
