PLEASE PLEASE HELP! Find the measure of APB^.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Whitepunk [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

65°

Step-by-step explanation:

Radii CA and CB are perpendicular to tangent lines AT and BT, so

\angle CAT=\angle CBT=90^{\circ}

Since angle BAT is equal to 65°, angle CAB has measure

\angle CAB=90^{\circ}-65^{\circ}=25^{\circ}.

Consider triangle ACB. This triangle is isosceles, because CA=CB as radii of the circle. Two angles adjacent to the base are congruent, thus

\angle CBA=\angle CAB=25^{\circ}

The sum of the measures of all interior angles in triangle is always 180°, so

\angle CAB+\angle CBA+\angle ACB=180^{\circ}\\ \\25^{\circ}+25^{\circ}+\angle ACB=180^{\circ}\\ \\\angle ACB=130^{\circ}

Angle ACB is central angle subtended on the minor arc AB, angle APB is inscribed angle subtended on the same minor arc AB. The measure of inscribed angle is half the measure of central angle subtended on the same arc, so

x=\angle APB=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 130^{\circ}=65^{\circ}

In how many distinct ways can the letters of the word mathematics be arranged? (first, does the order matter?)
TEA [102]
Our current list has 11!/2!11!/2! arrangements which we must divide into equivalence classes just as before, only this time the classes contain arrangements where only the two As are arranged, following this logic requires us to divide by arrangement of the 2 As giving (11!/2!)/2!=11!/(2!2)(11!/2!)/2!=11!/(2!2).

Repeating the process one last time for equivalence classes for arrangements of only T's leads us to divide the list once again by 2
