Mathematics

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

Susan used 1/2 gallons of gas on Sunday and 3 5/8 gallons of gas on Monday. How many more gallons of gas did she use on Monday?
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer: 3 and 1/8 more

Step-by-step explanation:

You can start by converting to the same fraction and making the second one improper, so 29/8 and 4/8. Subtract them to find the difference and  you are left with 25/8 or 3 1/8 gallons.

They have the same volume, so it's not a or d, but the surface area of a is 104, and the surface area of b is 94, so the answer is B.

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Given: BFCE, AB perpendicular to BE, DE perpendicular to BE,
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given picture,

∠ABE = ∠DEF = 90° [Since, AB and DE are perpendicular to DE]

m∠ECA = m∠BFD [Given]

m∠ECA + m∠ACB = 180° [Liner pair of angles]

m∠BFD + m∠DFE = 180° [Liner pair of angles]

m∠ACB + m∠ECA = m∠BFD + m∠DFE [Transitive property]

m∠ACB = m∠DEF [Since, m∠ECA = m∠BFD]

Therefore, ΔABC ≅ ΔDEF [By AA property of similarity]
