Hello : 
the center of this cercle is : O( 0, 0)
calculate the slope  m of the line : OA    .. A (3,-4)
m= (yA - yO) / (xA- xO) 
m = (-4-0)/(3-0)
m= -4/3
if : k the slope of the tangent : k×m = -1   (the tangent perpendiclar of : OA)
k× (-4/3) = -1
k = 3/4
an equation of this tangent is : y - (-4) = (3/4)(x-3)

The scale of a map is 1 : 25 000
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer: 5.5km

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale given 1 : 25 000 , and it was said that on the map , the distance between two railway stations is 22 cm , this means that the scale of the map is 1: 25000 cm.

The scale 1 : 25 000 means that each centimeters on the map represent 25 ,000 in real life ,therefore , to calculate the real distance between the two railway station , we have

25,000 X 22

= 550000 cm

To convert this to km

Recall that

1 km = 100,000 cm

Therefore we will divide the answer by 100,000 , that is

550000/100000

= 5.5 km

Therefore , the real distance between the two railway stations is 5.5km
