Angle bcd is a circumscribed angle of circle a. What is the length of line segment ac?

Mathematics
1 answer:
enyata [817]3 years ago
4 0

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

4/5÷1/5 what is the answer?
Ahat [919]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve. To do so, flip the second fraction, and change the division sign to a multiply:

4/5 ÷ 1/5 = 4/5 x 5/1

Multiply across:

(4 x 5)/(5 x 1) = 20/5

Simplify:

20/5 = 4

4 is your answer.

Which values of m and b will create a system of equations with no solution? choose 1 options.
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The graph of a linear equation is a straight line.  The "solution" to a system of two linear equations is the point where the two lines cross.  If the two lines are parallel, they never cross; hence parallel lines have no solution.  Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope (the m value in y = mx+b).  One of your equations is y = -2x + (you left the y-intercept out).  The slope is -2.  So any line with a slope of m = -2 will be parallel to this line and will not cross it.  The second line also needs a different value of b, the y-intercept.  Otherwise it is the same line and every point is a solution.  So if your equation is:

 

y = -2x + 1

 

Then any equation of the form y = -2x + b, b≠1 will create a system with no solution.  Hence the values of m and b are m = -2, b ≠ 1.
