Two tangents each intersect a circle at opposite

Mathematics

Answer:

No. They are parallel and parallel lines don't intersect each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

-The two tangents intersect the circle at it's diameters endpoints.

-Tangents are always perpendicular to the radius.

-Since, both tangents meet the circle perpendicularly at the extreme ends of the diameter, they have a parallel relationship.

-Parallel lies don't intersect.

-Hence, the tangents won't intersect at any point since they are parallel.

Answer:

No, the tangents cannot intersect outside of the circle. When tangents intersect outside of a circle, the measure of the angle they form is one half the difference of the intercepted arcs. So as a result, both intercepted arcs would have to measure 180 degrees which would make two tangents intersecting outside of the circle, improbable.

NO LINKS!!! Find the equation of the PARABOLA with a vertex at (-2, 6) and passing through the point (1, -3)​
levacccp [35]

General equation of parabola

  • y=a(x-h)²+k

for vertex(h,k)

Now

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y=a(x+2)^2+6

  • Put (1,-3) and find a

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow -3=a(1+2)^2+6

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow -9=a(3)^2

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow -9=9a

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow a=-1

So

equation of parabola

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y=-(x+2)^2+6

2x +4 (3 - 2x) = 3(2x + 2)/6 + 4<br> from my math book
liberstina [14]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x +4 (3 - 2x) = 3(2x + 2)/6 + 4

2x+12-8x = (6x+6)/6 +4

-6x + 12 = x+1+4

12-5 = 7x

7x = 7

x=1

Hope this helps!
