Lara wants to inscribe a square in a circle using only a compass and straightedge. She will first construct a circle and locate

its center. She will then perform the following steps. Step 1: Use the straightedge to draw a diameter of the circle. Label the points at which the diameter touches the circle as A and B. Step 2: Draw a second diameter through the center. Label the points at which the second diameter touches the circle as C and D. Step 3: Join the end points of the two diameters to form a square. What is the error in Lara's construction?3.

In Step 2, Lara did not ensure that the second diamter was perpendicualr to the first diameter she drew.


The correct steps should be:

Step 1: Use the straightedge to draw a diameter of the circle. Label the points at which the diameter touches the circle as A and B.

Step 2: Draw a second diameter <em>perpendicular to the first diameter</em>. Label the points at which the second diameter touches the circle as C and D.

Step 3: Join the end points of the two diameters to form a square.

Find the solution to the system of equations 2x+3y+z=20 3y+5z=12 y-5z=4
podryga [215]

Answer:

x =4 ,y =4 and z =0 is the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

We shall solve the equations using elimination  method

In equation 2 and 3 we can see that  coefficient of z in both equations  are same with opposite sides , adding equations (2) and (3)

3y+5z = 12

y -5z = 4     adding the equations

___________

4y      = 16

dividing both sides by 4

  y =\frac{16}{4}

 y = 4

Plugging the value of y in equation 2 or equation 3 ,we get

3(4) +5z = 12

12+5z = 12

  5z = 12-12 or 5z =0 gives z =0

plugging y =4 and z =0 in equation 1

2x+3(4)+ 0 = 20

2x+12 = 20

2x =20-12

2x = 8

x = 8 divided by 2 gives

x =4

therefore solution of the system is given by

x=4 , y =4 and z =0
