Answer:

75.96 Degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the trigonometric functions of Sine Cosine and Tangent

(SOH CAH TOA)

The unknown angle is near the adjacent side of 2 and the opposite side of 8

Therefore you use the Tangent function

However, since it's the angle that needs to be found, you need to use Arc Tangent (The inverse operation)

Unknown Angle = ArcTan (8 / 2)

Unknown Angle = 75.96 Degrees

Note: ArcTan is just Tan to the power of -1

On my calculator I have to click shift then click the tan function to access this it may be different on yours

Circle X with a radius of 6 units and circle Y with a radius of 2 units are shown. Which steps would prove the circles similar?

Answer:

See bolded below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take a look at the attachment below. It represents circle x and y, with respect to each of their radii. In each of the options we are given, we would have to translate and dilate the circles, by a fixed scale factor -

Now the first thing one would do is translate the circles so that they share a common center point, or in other words the center of one circle rests on the edge of the other circle. That way when dilating circle y, it may fit into circle x as it expands.

The second point is how much this smaller circle ( circle y ) has to expand. The radius of circle y being 2, has to increase by 3 times the value to equal the radius of circle x, and hence has to dilate by a scale factor of 3 as to match circle x,

<u><em>Solution = " Translate the circles so the center of one circle rests on the edge of the other circle, and dilate circle Y by a scale factor of 3 " / Option D</em></u>
