Because 6/10 = 0.6 or 60%

6 divided by 10 equals .6 because we are dividing a smaller number by a bigger number which results in a fraction. Also 6 divided by 10 is the same as 6/10 and we know that it is also 60/100 and because it is not a whole number because the 100 or 10 represents the whole number we add a decimal in front of the 60 becuase it shows how it is 60% or .6 part of 100 or a whole number.

Prove: If a chord of a circle makes an angle of 30° with a diameter, prove that the distance from the center to the chord is one

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

See explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let BC be the diameter of the circle with center at point O, AB be the chord and ∠ABC=30°. OD is the distance from the center to the chord.

Consider triangle BDO. This triangle is special 30°-60°-90° right triangle. The leg OD is opposite to the angle of 30° and is half of the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse of the triangle BDO is BO. BO is the radius of the circle and is equal to half of the diameter AB. Thus,

$OD=\dfrac{1}{2}BO=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot \dfrac{1}{2}AB=\dfrac{1}{4}AB.$
