Answer:
<h2>MN = 9.1 cm</h2>Step-by-step explanation:
If MN is tangent of a circle then the angle M is a right angle.
We have a dimeter of acircle d = 8 cm.
Therefore the radius CM = 8 cm : 2 = 4cm.
In a right triangle CMN use the Pythagorean theorem:
Substitute CM = 4cm and CN = 9.9 cm:
<em>subtract 16 from both sides</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
= - 4
= a* + (3- 1) d*
- 4 = a + 2d . . . . . . . . .(i)
= - 29
= a + ( 8 - 1) d
- 29 = a + 7d . . . . . . . . (ii)
subtracting equations (i) and (ii)
25 = 5d
d = -5
placing d = -5 in equation (i)
a - 10 = -4
a = 6
For an arithmetic Progtession
= a + (n - 1)d
= 6 + (n- 1)-5
= 6 - 5n + 5
