Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

With UW extended to point X, then

∠VWX is an external angle of the triangle.

The external angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles, that is

∠VWX = ∠WUV + ∠UVX ← substitute values

6x - 19 = 3x + 3 + x - 2, that is

6x - 19 = 4x + 1 (subtract 4x from both sides )

2x - 19 = 1 ( add 19 to both sides )

2x = 20 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 10

Answer:

8a. 0 8b. -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

slope formula: $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x{1}}$

8a. => (8 + 12)/(17 - 17) = 20/0 = 0

8b. (1 + 2)/(-3 - 6) = 3/-9 = - 1/3

Find an equation of the circle and sketch it if it has: Center on y=4, tangent x-axis at (–2, 0)

Digiron [165]

Answer:

$(x+2)^2+(y-4)^2=16$

OK, lets start by drawing a basic graph (the first one) so we can visualize.

We already know that the y coordinate of the circle's center is $4$ .

We know that the circle is tangent to the $X$ axis at $(-2,0)$

That means the x coordinate of the center has to be $-2$ , as the tangent is a point on the edge of the circle that touches a line at exactly one point.

The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to its edge. We know the center's location now, it is $(-2, 4)$ and a point on the edge of the circle (the tangent point) which is $(-2,0)$ . so the distance between the points is 4 which is the radius (you can use the distance formula, but it's quite oblivious.)

We can imagine the circle should look like this (the second one):

Now we can piece together an equation

The equation of a circle is $(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$ where $(h,k)$ is the center and $r$ is the radius. When we put the numbers in: we get $(x-(-2))^2+(y-(4))^2=4^2$ which can be simplified into $(x+2)^2+(y-4)^2=16$ which is the answer.
