Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The co-ordinates of the rectangle are:
A (8, 6)
B (-4, -10)
C (-8, -7)
D (4, 9)
The Area of Rectangle is Given by: <em>length x breadth </em>= AB x BC
Lengths of AB and BC can be found by distance formula
<em>length</em>(AB) = =
Similarly,
<em>length</em>(BC) = 5
Area of Rectangle = AB x BC = 20 x 5 = 100 square units
By applying the theorem of intersecting secants, the measure of angle XYZ is equal to: A. 35°.
<h3>How to determine angle <XYZ?</h3>By critically observing the geometric shapes shown in the image attached below, we can deduce that they obey the theorem of intersecting secants.
<h3>What is the theorem of intersecting secants?</h3>The theorem of intersecting secants states that when two (2) lines intersect outside a circle, the measure of the angle formed by these lines is equal to one-half (½) of the difference of the two (2) arcs it intercepts.
By applying the theorem of intersecting secants, angle XYZ will be given by this formula:
<XYZ = ½ × (m<WZ - m<XZ)
Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;
<XYZ = ½ × (175 - 105)
<XYZ = ½ × 70
<XYZ = 35°.
By applying the theorem of intersecting secants, we can infer and logically deduce that the measure of angle XYZ is equal to 35°.
