Mathematics
1 answer:
Alex3 years ago
6 0

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

What is 2x+54+4x-6=180<br>​
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

=22

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the numbers

2+54+4−6=180

2+48+4=180

Combine like terms

2+48+4=180

6+48=180

Subtract 48 from both sides of the equation

6+48=180

6+48−48=180−48

Simplify

Subtract the numbers

Subtract the numbers again

6=132

Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

6=132

6/6=132/6

Simplify

Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator

Divide the numbers

=22

Solution

=22

I need help finding the slope
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

slope = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, I chose two points where the line intersected the graph at an exact point.

Points:

(0, -8)

(4, -7)

Slope is the measure of rise over run, so starting at (0, -8) I went up one and to the right 4 times.

To put this as a fraction, we would have: 1/4

The numerator and denominator are positive because we went up and to the right.

Therefore, the slope is 1/4.
