Answer:

(D) 120 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure drawn, we have

∠ABC=60°

And ∠OAB=∠OCB=90° (angles made by tangent on the circle is 90°)

Thus, ∠AOC+∠OCB∠CBA+∠OAB=360° (Angles sum property of quadrilateral)

x+90^{\circ}+90^{\circ}+60^{\circ}=360^{\circ}

x+240^{\circ}=360^{\circ}

x=120^{\circ}

Therefore, the value of x is 120^{\circ}

Hence, option D is correct.

Answer: d. 120 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure drawn, we can see that

∠ABC=60°

Also we know that tangents are radius are perpendicular at the point of tangency

And ∠OAB=∠OCB=90° (∵ tangents are radius are perpendicular at the point of tangency)

Therefore, we have

\angle{AOC}+\angle{OCB}+\angle{ABC}+\angle{OAB}=360^{\circ}\text{ ( By Angle sum property of quadrilateral)}\\\\\Rightrarrow\ x+90^{\circ}+60^{\circ}+90^{\circ}=360^{\circ}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=360^{\circ}-240^{\circ}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=120^{\circ}

Find the percent of change. 20 increased to 40
ladessa [460]

Answer:

100% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate percentage change

from V1 = 20 to V2 = 40

(V2−V1)|V1|×100

=(40−20)|20|×100

=2020×100

=1×100

=100%change

=100%increase

What is the distance between two points with coordinates (32,12,5) and (20,3,13) in space?​
lozanna [386]

The distance between two points with the given coordinates in space is;

<u><em>Distance = 17 units</em></u>

We are given the coordinates;

(32, 12, 5)

(20, 3, 13)

  • Formula for the distance between two points that have (x, y, z) coordinates is;

d = √((x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)² + (z₂ - z₁)²)

From the equation given to us, we can see that;

x₁ = 32

x₂ = 20

y₁ = 12

y₂ = 3

z₁ = 5

z₂ = 13

  • Using the <em>formula for the distance</em>, we have;

d = √((20 - 32)² + (3 - 12)² + (13 - 5)²)

d = √(144 + 81 + 64)

d = √289

d = 17

Thus, the <em>distance</em> between the two points is 17 units
