A tangent intersects a circle at only one point, while a chord intersects the circle at two points. Also, a chord is contained within a circle, but a tangent is outside the circle, except for the point of tangency, which lies on the circle. Hope this helps :)

Hello!

1. A chord is a ray joining 2 points situated on a given curve.
 
2. A tangent is a ray that passes through only one point situated on the curve.

Temka [501]

Answer:

9.48

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete question

<em>A stainless steel patio heater is a square pyramid. The length of one side of the base is 89.6 The slant height of the pyramid 90.1. What is the height of the​ pyramid?</em>

To get the height of the pyramid, we will use pythagoras theorem.

slant height l is the hypotenuse

length of the base is the adjacent

height of the pyramid is the opposite

According to the theorem;

l² = h² + b²

90.1² = h² + 89.6²

8,118.01 = <em>h²+</em>8,028.16

h²= 8,118.01 - 8,028.16

h² = 89.85

h =√89.85

h = 9.48

Hence the height of the pyramid will be 9.48

<em>Note that the value of the slant height was assumed to solve the problem</em>.

Select Equal or Not Equal to correctly classify each statement.
Black_prince [1.1K]
The first problem is true because with multiplication it doesn't matter which order it is in.

The second problem is false because you will get a different quotient depending on which numbers are on which side of the equation.
