Answer:

<h2>A. Switch the inequality sign</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

When multiplying, you must switch the inequality sign. This is also true when dividing.

EXAMPLE 1:

-4r < -21

Note: We reversed the inequality sign when we divided by -4

r > 5 1/4

EXAMPLE 2:

x/-5 <u>></u> 7

Note: We reversed the inequality sign when we multiplied by -5

x <u><</u> -35

I'm always happy to help :)

Circle J is inscribed in isosceles trapezoid ABCD, as shown. Points E, F, G, and H are points of tangency. The length of AB is 1

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

15cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Theorem: All tangents to a circle from the same point are equal.

Sine E, F, G and H are points of Tangency, by the theorem above:

EB=BF
FC=GC

The diameter line EC divides the Isosceles Trapezoid into two equal parts.

Therefore:

EB=10/2=5cm
GC=20/2=10cm

We then have by the equality above that:

BF=5cm
FC=10cm

BC=BF+FC

=5+10

=15cm
