Answer:

Option C.

The distance from the point to the circle is 6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The distance between the circle and the point will be the difference of the distance of the point from the center of circle  and the radius of the circle

step 1

Find the center and radius of the circle

we have

x^{2} +y^{2}-8y=0

Convert to radius center form

Complete the square

x^{2} +(y^{2}-8y+16)=0+16

Rewrite as perfect squares

x^{2} +(y-4)^{2}=16

so

The center is the point (0,4)

The radius is

r^{2}=16\\r=4\ units

step 2

Find the distance of the point from the center of circle

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}

we have

(6,-4) and (0,4)

substitute the values

d=\sqrt{(4+4)^{2}+(0-6)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(8)^{2}+(-6)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{100}\ units

d=10\ units

step 3

Find the difference of the distance of the point from the center of circle  and the radius of the circle

10\ units-4\ units=6\ units

therefore

The distance from the point to the circle is 6 units

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The kinds of polygons that could be Diedre's quadrilateral are rectangle and square

Step-by-step explanation:

We  note the conditions of the polygon as thus

Number of sides = 4, Which include trapezoid, square, rectangle

Size of angles = 90 ° which eliminates trapezoid

Sizes of opposite sides = Equal opposite sides, includes square and rectangle

With the above we conclude that the possible polygons in Diedre's quadrilateral are rectangle and square

Answer:

0.982 * \pi  = 3.085 cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of the solid generated by a region that is bounded by lines where x = 0 , x (b) = 2 we apply the formula given in the attachment below  

the required region boundaries are

y = e^-x2 , y = 0 ,  x = 0,  x = b ( b >0)

attached below is a detailed solution of the problem
