Answer:

Measure of ∠BCP is 36°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the circle in which measure of arc BC is 72°

we have to find the measure of angle BCP.

m∠BOC=∠2=72°

By theorem angle subtended at the centre is twice the angle formed at the circumference of circle.

∴ ∠2=2∠1 ⇒ 72=2∠1

⇒ ∠1=36°

By alternate segment theorem which states that

The angle formed between a chord and a tangent through one of the end points of chord is equals to angle in alternate segment.

⇒ ∠3=∠1=36°

Hence, measure of ∠BCP is 36°

Option D is correct

What is x² + 7x - 30

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Are you looking for the value of x?

We can complete the square/factor:

x^2+7x-30=0

(x+10)(x-3)=0

By the zero product property rule, we have two equations, x+10=0 and x-3=0.

So the zeroes of x are -10 and 3

Hope this helped. Comment below if this didn't make sense.

I need help with my math!!!!!!!

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

2 $\sqrt{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a square = $s^{2}$ (s is a side length)

24 = $s^{2}$

$\sqrt{24}$ = $\sqrt{s^{2} }$

$\sqrt{24}$ = s

$\sqrt{(4)(6) }$ = s

2 $\sqrt{6}$ = s
