Answer:

Correct option: C) 90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a tangent segment to a circle, the angle made with the radius of the circle and the tangent segment is always a right angle, that is, 90 degrees. In other words, the radius and the tangent segment are always perpendicular.

If QR is tangent to the circle P, and PQ is the radius of the circle, the segment PQ is perpendicular to the segment QR, so the angle PQR is equal 90 degrees.

Correct option: C)

Zina [86]

check the picture below.


bearing in mind that there are 60 minutes in 1 degree, then 16°18' will be 16.3° and likewise 48°51' will be 48.85° if we convert those to degrees only.


\bf y=\cfrac{200}{tan(48.85^o)}~\hspace{10em}x=\cfrac{200}{tan(16.3^o)}-y \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{200}{tan(16.3^o)}-\cfrac{200}{tan(48.85^o)}\implies x\approx 683.95 - 174.78\implies x\approx 509.17

The diagram shows two nested triangles that share a vertex.Find a center and a scale factor for a dilation that would move the l
nasty-shy [4]

Transformation that changes the size of a shape is referred to as dilation.

  • The scale factor that moves the large triangle to the small one is 1/5
  • The center of dilation is: (-1,1)

<u>The center of dilation</u>

From the diagram (see attachment), the triangles share a common vertex at (-1,1)

This means that, the center of dilation is (-1,1)

<u>The scale factor of dilation</u>

To do this, we divide the side length of the small triangle with the corresponding side of the large triangle.

From the attached image:

\mathbf{Base\ of\ small\ triangle = 1}

\mathbf{Base\ of\ large\ triangle = 5}

So, the scale factor (k) from large to small is:

\mathbf{k = \frac{Base\ of\ small\ triangle}{Base\ of\ large\ triangle} }

\mathbf{k = \frac{1}{5} }
