Answer:
The chord is bisected.
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
In the circle of the figure
The diameter is the segment DE
The chord is the segment AB
PA=PB=r ----> radius of the circle
Triangles PAC and PBC are congruent right triangles by SSS
Because
PA=PB
PC is a common side
AC=BC ----> Applying Pythagoras Theorem
therefore
The chord AB is bisected
For every value tht x increases, y decreases by 3
-3x
Then to find the y intercept, look at 0's corresponding value (8)
-3x+8
Answer:
y-6=-1/3(x+6)
Step-by-step explanation:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(3-6)/(3-(-6))
m=-3/(3+6)
m=-3/9
simplify
m=-1/3
y-6=-1/3(x-(-6))
y-6=-1/3(x+6)
Start at 4 on the y axis
move 2 units up and 3 units right
