Distribution of properties
He should use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing length.
Since KT is tangent to the circle and TL reaches the center of circle L, the measure of angle LTK is 90 degrees. This means that triangle LTK is a right triangle which means the Pythagorean Theorem can be used.
So,
TL²+(12)²=(13)²
=> TL²+144=169
=> TL²=25
=> TL = 5
Therefore, the radius of circle L is 5 feet.
Remember SOHCAHTOA
Sine- opposite/hypotenuse
Cosine- adjacent/hypotenuse
Tangent- opposite/adjacent
Look at the angle (x) you are trying to figure out and pick which one of these it is.
In your calculator, do the equation first to get a decimal
Then press whichever one you chose on the calculator, so if you got like 0.2 by doing opposite/adjacent for tangent, you would type in 0.2 and then the TAN button
hope this makes sense!!
Answer:
16(0.5x - 0.75y + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
16 x 0.5 = 8
16 x -0.75 = -12
16 x 2 = 32
