Combine points X and O to get segment XO and combine points Z and O to get segment ZO. Segments XO and ZO are radii of the given circle, then they are congruent. Thus, the triangle XOZ is isosceles, that gives you \angle OXZ\cong \angle OZX.

Since segments XY and YZ are tangent to the circle, then m\angle YXO=m\angle YZO=90^{\circ}.

Consider angles ∠ZXY and ∠XZY:

m\angle ZXY=m\angle OXY-m\angle OXZ,\\m\angle XZY=m\angle OZY-m\angle OZX.

Taking into account that

m\angle OXY=m\angle OZY,\\ m\angle OXZ=m\angle OZX,

you have

m\angle ZXY=m\angle XZY.

If twoo angles adjacent to the side are congruent, then this side is a base of isosceles triangle.

Answer: correct choice is B.

which of the following are the exact same distance from a parabola? A.Locus and Directix B.Axis and vertex C.Directix and Focus
Softa [21]

Answer:

C. Directrix and Focus

Step-by-step explanation:

Given choices are :

A. Locus and Directrix

B. Axis and vertex

C. Directrix and Focus or

D. Vertex and Locus

Now we need to find about which of the above choices are the exact same distance from a parabola.

By definition of parabola, vertex lies at equal distance from directrix and focus.

Hence choice  C. Directrix and Focus  is correct.
