Mathematics

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The length of segment AC is 10 units ⇒ 1st answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Look to the attached figure

In circle A

∵ AB is a radius

∵ BC is a tangent to circle A at B

- The radius and the tangent are perpendicular to each other

    at the point of contact

∴ AB ⊥ BC at point B

∴ m∠ABC = 90°

In ΔABC

∵ m∠B = 90°

∵ AB = 8 units

∵ BC = 6 units

- By using Pythagoras Theorem (Square the hypotenuse is

    equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides of

     the triangle)

∵ (AC)² = (AB)² + (BC)²

∴ (AC)² = (8)² +(6)²

∴ (AC)² = 64 + 36

∴ (AC)² = 100

- Take √ for both sides

∴ AC = 10 units

The length of segment AC is 10 units

A car is 200 km from its destination after an hour and 80 km from its destination after 3 hour
Pani-rosa [81]

200 - 80 is equal to 120. So the car traveled 120 km in 3 hours. It travels at an average of 120/3 = 40 km/hr, and will reach its destination in 2 hours.

Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope. (3, –8); m = –5
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

y+8=-5(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for point-slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1)

The points for (x1, y1) are (3, -8), meaning that 3 is x1 and -8 is y1.

So, start by writing your equation like this: y--8=m(x-3)

For the equation y--8=m(x-3), the y--8 will change to a + sign because two negatives make a positive, right? So, the equation should now look like this: y+8=m(x-3).

We know that the slope (m) is -5. Plug that into the equation to get this: y+8=-5(x-3)

And there you have it!! The equation is now in point-slope form!!

y+8=-5(x-3) is the final answer!!

Hope that helps you!! Please give me brainliest!!
