Answer:

Onyango is 48, his daughter is 16 and his son is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call Onyango's age x, therefore his daughter and son's ages are 1/3 x and 1/4 x respectively. We can write:

x + 8 = 12 + (1/3x + 8 + 1/4x + 8)

x + 8 = 7/12x + 28

5/12x = 20

x = 48 → 1/3x = 48 / 3 = 16, 1/4x = 48 / 4 = 12

The segment GH and GI are tangent
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

  OG = 8.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle a tangent makes with a radius at the point of tangency is a right angle. That means ΔOGH is a right triangle.

The tangents to a circle from an external point are congruent, so GH = GI = 6.3. Now we know the sides of the right triangle are of lengths 6 and 6.3. The hypotenuse, OG is found using the Pythagorean theorem.

  OG² = OH² +GH²

  OG² = 6² +6.3² = 75.69

  OG = √75.69 = 8.7

The length of OG is 8.7 units.

______

<em>Additional comment</em>

You might recognize this triangle as a 0.3 multiple of the Pythagorean triple (20, 21, 29).
