TANGENT LINES FIND PERIMETER

Mathematics
1 answer:
Harlamova29_29 [7]3 years ago

There is a theorem that says that, two tangent lines onto a circle that start from the same point are equal. For example, if we were to label the polygon ABCD, the tangent lines going from point A are equal, the lines going from point B are equal, etc.

Since we now know this rule, we can see that, for each point of the polygon you are given 1 out of 2 tangent lines for that point. Using this theorem, we can say that the other tangent line is equal to the first.

So, the bottom two tangents are 98 and 98, the right-side are both 22 and 22, the top are both 27 and 27, and the left are 22 and 22. We need to find the perimeter, or the sum of all the sides of the polygon. Seeing as the sides of the polygon are formed by all the tangent lines, we just have to find the sum of all the tangent lines.

98 + 98 + 22 + 22 + 27 + 27 + 22 + 22 =
= 196 + 88 + 54 (or 2*98 + 4*22 + 2+27) =
= 338 inches

I hope this wasnt too confusing.

We need to notice that SSSS does not exist as a method to prove that parallelograms are congruent

Counterexample

As we can see we have the same measure of the side of the intern angles of the figures are different therefore we can't use SSSS to prove congruence

Tom wants to place a photograph that is 8.5 inches wide on his science fair poster. His poster board is 21.25 inches wide. How f
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

6 3/8 inches (6.375 inches)

Step-by-step explanation:

For simplicity we'll assume that both the photo and the poster board are square.  To determine the width of the border, subtract 8.5 inches from the poster board width 21.25 inches, obtaining 12.75 inches, and then divide that 12.75 inches by 2:  6.375 inches (6 3/8 inches).  

Set the photo 6 3/8 inches from each edge of the poster board.

An agency has 4,000 employees. 2,000 employees have at least two years of college education. 1,000 of those employees have bache
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

1/80 of the agency's employees have PhDs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total number of employees = 4000

Number of employees with bachelors degree = 1000

Fraction of employees with graduate degree = 1/4 of 1000 = 250

1/5 of the employees with graduate degrees have PhD.

Number of employees with PhDs = 1/5 of 250 = 50

Now,

Fraction of PhD employees to total employees = \frac{50}{4000} = \frac{1}{80}

Hence,

1/80 of the agency's employees have PhDs.
