Answer:

x= 6.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

When a tangent line touches the circle, it forms a right angle triangle at that point

Apply the Pythagorean relationship in this case

Given that the height is = 20.2 cm = b

The hypotenuse is = c= x+14.7 cm

General formulae is;

a² +b² =c²

x² + 20.2² =( x+ 14.7)²

x² + 408.04= x² +14.7x+14.7x+216.09

x² + 408.04= x² + 29.4 x +216.09.........................collect like terms

x²-x² + 408.04-216.09= 29.4x

191.95= 29.4x-------------------------------divide by 29.4 t0 get x

191.95/29.4 =x

x=6.5 cm

G) X-3 (x - 2) = 3 (2-x)​
Paraphin [41]
  • x - 3( x - 2 ) = 3 ( 2 - x )

Multiply 3 with x - 2 on LHS and 3 with 2 - x on RHS

  • or, x - 3x + 6 = 6 - 3x

Now take -3x to LHS and change its symbol to +. And take 6 to RHS and change it to negative.

  • or, x - 3x + 3x = 6 - 6

-3x and 3x will cancel out and also 6 and -6 will also get cancelled out.

  • or, x = 0

<u>Answer</u><u>:</u>

<u>x </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>0</u>

Hope you could understand.

Christie needs 54.3 Square feet of laminate wood suppose each square foot of laminated wood cost $.60 find the amount she has to
Irina18 [472]
It will cost $33.

Since wood cost $ .60 sq ft, you can assume she needs to buy 55 sq ft because she will need to buy enough to have 54.3 square ft.

55 x $ .60 = $33

$32.58 would be he total for the 54.3 sq ft and .42 cents would be for the left over .7 sq ft that she didn’t use
