NARA [144]3 years ago

Answer: 6.1 units

Explanation:

It is given,

QR is a tangent to the circle touching the circle at point Q and the length of RQ = 5.3

The length of the radius of the circle, QP = 3

Since a tangent to a circle is perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact, therefore,  

∠PQR = 90°

Now referring to the figure attached below, and by using Pythagoras theorem, in ∆ PQR, we get

RP² = RQ² + QP²

⇒ RP² = 5.3² + 3²….. [substituting the given values]

⇒ RP = √[5.3² + 3²]

⇒ RP = √[28.09 + 9]

⇒ RP = √[37.09]

⇒ RP = 6.0901  

⇒ RP = 6.1 …… [rounding off to its nearest tenth]

Thus, the approximate length of the RP is 6.1.

Which choice is more common in rural areas than urban areas?
Olenka [21]

Open grasslands are more common in rural areas than urban areas.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Open grasslands are most common in rural areas because in urban areas lands are used for industrialisation,urbanisation and many more other developing sites. In rural areas, Lands are still vacant for agricultural activities.

One of the reasons for finding open grasslands in rural areas is because people are migrating to urban areas. People think that they earn more in industries than in agriculture. Most of the animals are found in rural areas so for their feeding purpose, grasslands are required in rural areas.
