An = a1 * r^(n-1)
n = term to find = 18
a1 = first term = 3
r = common ratio = 4/3
now we sub
a18 = 3 * 4/3^(18 - 1)
a18 = 3 * 4/3^17
a18 = 3 * 133
a18 = 399
If the drawing of your octagon (or whatever) has been separated into triangles, and one triangle's area<span> is labeled, then you do not need to know the apothem. Just take the </span>area<span> of that one triangle, and multiply by the number of sides in the original </span>polygon<span>.</span>
well, looking at the picture of this vertically opening parabola, it has a vertex at 0,0 and it passes through 2,1 hmm ok

According to the given information, the equation represents a line that is tangent to the circle and goes through the point W is given by:
y = -x + 6.
<h3>What is the equation of the circle?</h3>
The equation of a circle of center
and radius r is given by:

In this problem, we have that the center is at point (0,2), hence:

It goes through point (3,3), hence:


Hence, the equation is:

<h3>What is the equation of the tangent line at point W?</h3>
It is given by:

Applying implicit differentiation, we have that:


Point W(3,3), hence:


Hence the equation is:
y - 3 = -(x - 3).
y = -x + 6.
