Answer:

D. The correct value of  c  = 7.4

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Tangent-Secant theorem:

"When a tangent and a secant are drawn from one single external point to a circle, square of the length of tangent segment must be equal to the product of lengths of whole secant segment and the exterior portion of secant segment."

Here, the external length of tangent segment = 10

Also, the length of internal segment  is 14 and c.

So, by the SECANT THEOREM:

(10)^2  = 14 \times c\\\implies c = \frac{100}{14} = 7.14

or, c  = 7. 1428

Now, rounding off the value of c = 7. 14 to the nearest tenth, we get

c = 7. 4

Hence the correct value of  c  = 7.4

Answer:

The value of c for he given figure is 7.4  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given figure of circle with two chords meeting outside the circle

Let The points A, D , E , C are on the circle

And The chords AB and CD meets at points B

The measure of AD = 20

The measure of BD = 10

So. The measure of AB = 20 + 10 = 30

The measure of CE = c

The measure of EB = 14

So, The measure of CB = c + 14

Now, <u>From the property of circle </u>

AB × BD = CB × EB

Or, ( AD +BD ) × BD = ( CE + EB )  × EB

Or, ( 20 + 10 ) × 10 = ( c + 14 ) × 14

or, 30  × 10 = c × 14 + 196

Or, 300 - 196 =  c × 14

Or  c × 14 = 104

∴ c = \frac{104}{14}

I.e c = 7.4

Hence The value of c for he given figure is 7.4  Answer

2a. Determine the equation of the line connecting the points (0, -1) and (2, 3) *
Sauron [17]
First create the equation y=Mx+ B

B is the y intercept so when y = 0, B = -1.

Now we have y=Mx - 1

The slope is M. We can calculate this by using the formula M = (y2 -y1) / (x2 - x1)

Use the points (0, -1) and (2,3) for these values. So y2 = 3, y1 = -1, x2 = 2, x1 = 0

Plug them into the equation and solve

M = (3 + 1) / (2 - 0)
M = 4/2 = 2

Now we have the equation y = 2x - 1

Next to figure out if the points given are on the line you take the values and plug them into your equation like so: 4 = 2(-2) - 1

2(-2) - 1 does not equal 4 so this point does not fall on this line. Follow this same procedure for the next point given.

What is the measure of cº?<br> A. 7.5°<br> B. 15<br> C. 30°<br> D. 45
mylen [45]

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180º

3x + 5x + 4x = 180

Combine like terms

12x = 180

Divide both sides by 12

x = 15

C = 5x

C = 5 * 15

C = 75º
