For a better understanding of the explanation provided here, please find the diagrams in the two files that have been attached.

As can be clearly seen from the diagram, PR and QS are the diameters of the circle and they intersect each other at the centre, O of the circle.

The angle these diameters make at the point of intersection O is 90 degrees.

If Margot joins the points P,Q,R and S which are on the circumference of the circle, then we will get a square with sides PQ, QR, RS and SP as shown in the second diagram.

Thus, the correct option is Option A.

The height of a triangle is 4 ft less than the base x. The area is 126 ft2. Find the dimensions of the triangle.

valina [46]

Answer:

Base = x = 18ft

Height = x - 4 = 14ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of A the triangle is given by the following equation:

1) A = (base * heigth)/(2)

From this problem, we know that

base = x and that the height is 4ft less than the base, so height = base - 4 = x - 4.

We also know that the area is 126ft², so A = 126 ft². Now we can replace these informations in equation 1).

126 = (x(x-4))/2

x² - 4x = 252

x² -4x - 252 = 0

The roots of this equation are x = 18 or x = -14. But we know that a triangle cannot have negative dimensions, so we use x = 18.

The base is x, so base = 18ft.

Height is 4ft less than the base, so height equals 18-4 = 14ft
