The question is a little vague but I believe the answer would be 16. 16 divided in half is 8. And that is 8 less than 16. < Not the answer for this question.

I didn't understand the question until Maria answered, she is completely right! Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Point B is a point of tangency. Find the radius r of OC.<br> А 9<br> B<br> r<br> n
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Radius, r, is 3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given diagram,

AB = 9

AC = 6 + r

BC = r

Thus applying the Pythagoras theorem, we have;

/AC/^{2} = /AB/^{2} + /BC/^{2}

(6 + r)^{2} = 9^{2} + r^{2}

36 + 12r + r^{2} = 81 + r^{2}

collecting like terms,

12r = 81 - 36

12r = 45

r = \frac{25}{12}

   = 3.75

r = 3.75

The radius is 3.75.
