Find x [Angles and Segment]

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alex_Xolod [135]3 years ago

Answer:

  8.3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of lengths to the near and far point of intersection with the circle is the same in all cases:

  (7 cm)(7 cm) = (y)(11 cm +y) = (4 cm)(4 cm +x)

Since we're only interested in x, we can divide by 4 and subtract 4:

  49 cm² = (4 cm)(4 cm +x)

  (49/4) cm = 4 cm +x . . . . . . divide by 4 cm

  8.25 cm = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4 cm

To the nearest tenth, x = 8.3 cm.

_____

For a tangent segment, the two points of intersection with the circle are the same point, so the product of lengths is the square of the length.

___

The angles depend on the size of the circle, which is not given.

Because if you put a two on one side and put the inverted version of 2, then join them on their lines, it forms a fish. I have more of those types of questions:

1. Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

#1) y = -4x + 1; #2) parallel; #3) y = -1/2x + 5/2; #4) y = 2x + 4; #5) Never

Step-by-step explanation:

#1) We want a line that passes through (1, -3) and is parallel to y = 2-4(x-1).  First we simplify our equation using the distributive property:

y = 2-4(x-1) = 2-4(x) -4(-1) = 2-4x--4 = 2-4x + 4 = -4x + 6

Lines that are parallel have the same slope; this means we want a line through (1, -3) with a slope of -4.  Using point-slope form,

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y--3=-4(x-1)\\\\y+3=-4(x)-4(-1)\\\\y+3=-4x+4\\\\y+3-3=-4x+4-3\\\\y=-4x+1

#2) We must first write our second equation in slope-intercept form by isolating the y term:

2x+y=7

Subtract 2x from each side"

2x+y-2x = 7-2x

y = -2x+7

This means the slope is -2; the slopes are the same, so the lines are parallel.

#3) The slope of our given equation is 2.  To be perpendicular, the second line must have a slope that is a negative reciprocal (flipped and opposite signs); this makes it -1/2.  Using point-slope form,

y-0=\frac{-1}{2}(x-5)\\\\y=\frac{-1}{2}(x)+\frac{-1}{2}(-5)\\\\y=\frac{-1}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}

#4) The slope of Main Street on the diagram, found by using rise/run, is 2.  This means the bike path will also have a slope of 2 in order to be parallel.  The park entrance is at (0, 4).  This makes the equation y = 2x+4.

#5) Two lines with the same slope are always parallel.  They are never perpendicular.
