Find the measure of the line segment GE. Assume that lines which appear tangent are tangent.

Mathematics
1 answer:
ch4aika [34]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The measure of the line segment GE is 18\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

<u>The Intersecting Secant-Tangent Theorem</u> , states that the square of the measure of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and its external secant segment

so

In this problem

GE*GF=GH^{2}

substitute the values

(8+x)(8)=12^{2}

solve for x

8x+64=144

8x=144-64

8x=80

x=10

Find the measure of the line segment GE

GE=8+10=18\ units

What are the coordinates of D’ when the quadrilateral is reflected across the line y = x? On a coordinate plane, quadrilateral A
natita [175]

Answer:

D' (1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

When reflected across the y = x line, the "x" and "y" coordinates switch.

If D is (3, 1), then:

x = 3

y = 1

Switch the "x" and "y" values, and rewrite as (x, y).

x = 1

y = 3

D' (1, 3)

The standard form or the equation of a parabola is y = 7x^2 + 14 +4. What is the vertex form of the equation?
zubka84 [21]
We know that
<span>the vertex form of the equation is
y=a(x-h)</span>²+k

we have 
y = 7x² + 14x +4
y=7(x² + 2x) +4
y=7(x² + 2x+1-1) +4
y=7(x² + 2x+1) +4-7
y=7(x+1)²-3

the answer is
y=7(x+1)²-3

Alex rolls a 6-sided dice ten times.
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Hello Love! The median is simply just the number in the middle so sense we have 2 numbers in the middle our median will be 3 and 6

The mean is when you add up the numebers then divide by how many numbers there are so...

3 + 2 + 4 + 6 + 3 + 6 + 1 + 2 + 5 + 4 = 36 so 36 divided by 10 is 3.6

The range is simply just the biggest number in the sequence subtracted by the smallest number so... 6 - 1 = 5 so 5 would be our range!

Hope this helps you.
