A triangle ABC is inscribed in a circle, such that AB is a diameter. What are the measures of angles of this triangle if measure

of arc BC = 134°

1 answer:

Katen [24]4 years ago

Answer:

∠C=90°

∠A=67°

∠B=23°

Step-by-step explanation:

For angle C:

Thales' Theorem states that an angle inscribed across a circle's diameter is always a right angle.

Therefore, since AB is the diameter(hypotenuse) then angle C is the right angle. (90°)

For Angle A:

The measure of arc BC= 134 degrees. We can just use a formula for an inscribed triangle. ∠A = 1/2 (mBC)

∠A= (1/2)134

∠A= 77°

For angle B:

All triangle angles all add up to 180. We can just subtract angles A and C from 180°:

∠B = 180-(90+67)

∠B = 23°

What is the slope of a line that passes through the points (61,-17) and (62,64)

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

m = 81

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that slope m = rise / run.

As we go from (61,-17) to (62,64), the horizontal measurement (x) increases by 1 and the vertical measurement (y) increases by 81.

Thus, the desired slope is

81

m = ------ = 81

2/7m-1/7=3/14 help this is so confusing

Free_Kalibri [48]

Solution for $\frac{2}{7}m - \frac{1}{7} = \frac{3}{14} \ is \ m = \frac{5}{4} \ or \ m = 1\frac{1}{4} \ or \ m = 1.25$

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

A case about one variable linear quations. We have to solve the equation to get the variable m. Let's isolate the variable m alone at the end of the process on one side of the equation, until the variable will be equal to a value on the opposite side.

We add $\frac{1}{7}$ to both sides:

$\frac{2}{7}m - \frac{1}{7} + \frac{1}{7} = \frac{3}{14} + \frac{1}{7}$

$\frac{2}{7}m = \frac{3}{14} + \frac{1}{7}$

On the right side for the addition operation, we equate the common denominator by multiplying $\ \frac{1}{7} \ by \ \frac{2}{2}$

$\frac{2}{7}m = \frac{3}{14} + \frac{2}{14}$

Then we combine terms to get:

$\frac{2}{7}m = \frac{5}{14}$

We divide by the coefficient of m, or in other words, multiply both sides by $\frac{7}{2}$ :

$\frac{2}{7}m \times \frac{7}{2} = \frac{5}{14} \times \frac{7}{2}$

Finally, the solution is obtained as follows

$m = \frac{35}{28}$

We simplify fractions, both the numerator and denominator are divided equally by 7.

$\boxed{ \ m = \frac{5}{4} \ }$

In the form of mixed fractions, we get:

$\boxed{ \ m = 1 \frac{1}{4} \ }$

In decimal form, we get

$m = 1 \frac{25}{100} \rightarrow \boxed{ \ m = 1.25 \ }$

Check the solution into the equation:

$\big( \frac{2}{7} \times \frac{5}{4} \big) - \frac{1}{7} = \frac{3}{14}$

$\frac{10}{28} - \frac{1}{7} = \frac{3}{14}$

$\frac{5}{14} - \frac{2}{14} = \frac{3}{14}$

$\frac{3}{14} = \frac{3}{14}$

Both sides show the same value, so the solution is correct.

Quick steps in summary:

$\frac{2}{7}m - \frac{1}{7} = \frac{3}{14}$

$\frac{2}{7}m = \frac{3}{14} + \frac{1}{7}$

$\frac{2}{7}m = \frac{3}{14} + \frac{2}{14}$

$\frac{2}{7}m = \frac{5}{14}$

$m = \frac{5}{14} \times \frac{7}{2}$

$m = \frac{35}{28}$

$\rightarrow \boxed{ \ m = \frac{5}{4} \ }$

$\rightarrow \boxed{ \ m = 1 \frac{1}{4} \ }$

$\rightarrow \boxed{ \ m = 1.25 \ }$

Note:

The important thing to do is how to manipulate both sides of the equation with the algebraic properties of equality such as:

adding,
subtracting,
multiplying, and/or
dividing both sides of the equation with the same number.

All these processes can occur repeatedly until the isolated variables are obtained on one side of the equation. In the form of fractions, the steps that must be considered are

equate the denominator,
simplify fractions, and
turn fractions into mixed fractions or decimal forms.

Let's practice a lot until you get used to and know which operations should be done first.

The variable Z is directly proportional to X, and inversely proportional to Y. When X is 3 and Y is 6, Z has the value 9.5. What

RideAnS [48]

Directly proportional to x

z=kx

And inversely proportional to y

z=kx/y we are given the point (x,y,z) of (3, 6, 9.5) so

9.5=3k/6 now multiply both sides by 6

57=3k divide both sides by 3

19=k so now that we know the constant of proportionality:

z=19x/y, and we want to solve for z when x=8 and y=12 so:

z=19(8)/12

z=12 2/3 exact

z≈12.667 (rounded to the nearest thousandth)
