To be sure of getting a pair of socks of the same color, you must place yourself in the worst position.

When you take out socks without lookong (radomly), the worst scenary is that the first time you take out a sock of a color and in the second fime you take out a sock of different color. Then, the next time (the third time) you necessarily take a sock that match one of the two taken out previously, and so have a pair.

So, the answer is that you must take out three socks to be sure that you have a pair.

O is the centre of the circle, EF is a tangent, angle BCE = 28°, angle ACD = 31°
andriy [413]

Answer

a. 28˚

b. 76˚

c. 104˚

d. 56˚

Step-by-step explanation

Given,

∠BCE=28°  ∠ACD=31°  &  line AB=AC .

According To the Question,

  • a. the angle between a chord and a tangent through one of the end points of the chord is equal to the angle in the alternate segment.(Alternate Segment Theorem) Thus, ∠BAC=28°

  • b. We Know The Sum Of All Angles in a triangle is 180˚, 180°-∠CAB(28°)=152° and ΔABC is an isosceles triangle, So 152°/2=76˚

        thus , ∠ABC=76° .

  • c. We know the Sum of all angles in a triangle is 180° and opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral(ABCD) add up to 180˚,

Thus, ∠ACD + ∠ACB = 31° + 76° ⇔ 107°

Now, ∠DCB + ∠DAB = 180°(Cyclic Quadrilateral opposite angle)

∠DAB = 180° - 107° ⇔ 73°

& We Know, ∠DAC+∠CAB=∠DAB ⇔ ∠DAC = 73° - 28° ⇔ 45°

Now, In Triangle ADC Sum of angles in a triangle is 180°

∠ADC = 180° - (31° + 45°)  ⇔  104˚

   

  • d. ∠COB = 28°×2 ⇔ 56˚ , because With the Same Arc(CB) The Angle at circumference are half of the angle at the centre

Find the area. The figure is not drawn to scale
poizon [28]

Answer:

96 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

From given picture we see that

BC=8 in

AD=10 in

Given that

AD=AB

Then AB=10 in

Apply Pythagorean theorem in triangle ABC to find AC

(hypotenuse)^2=(base)^2+(perpendicular)^2

(AB)^2=(BC)^2+(AC)^2

(10)^2=(8)^2+(AC)^2

100=64+(AC)^2

100-64=(AC)^2

36=(AC)^2

take square root

6=AC

Then area of triangle ABC =\frac{1}{2}\left(base\right)\left(altitude\right)

=\frac{1}{2}\left(8\right)\left(6\right)=24

There are total 4 congruent triangles.

Then total area of the given figure = 4(24)=96 square inches.
