The <em>correct answer</em> is:
A) A tangent is never a secant.
Explanation:
A tangent is a line that touches a circle in exactly one point. A secant is a line that touches a circle in two different points.
Since a tangent only touches once and a secant touches twice, there is no way a tangent can be a secant.
Answer:
C and D
Step-by-step explanation:
The quadratic formula is
x= (-b±√b²-4ac)/2a
The formula uses the numerical coefficients in the quadratic equation.
The general quadratic equation is ax²+bx+c where a, b and c are the numerical coefficients
So, lets try and see;
A.
But due to the fact that in this equation you have x⁴, the equation is not a quadratic equation thus can not be solved using this formula
B
C
D.
From the checking above, the equations will be C and D
Move the decimal 2 places to the right resulting in the answer 2,380
Answer: a = 23 ft.
Reasoning:
The question asks for the value of the leg a, given the tangent of the opposite angle and the length of the adjacent-leg, b.
The ratio that relates the three parameters is:
tan(A) = opposite-leg / adjacent-leg = a / b = a / 23 ft
Solve for a, wich is the unknown:
a = 23ft * tan(A) = 23ft * 1.0 = 23 ft
Answer: 23 ft.
