Points H and F lie on circle c What is the length of line segment GH?

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Points H and F lie on circle with center C. EG = 12, EC = 9 and ∠GEC = 90°.

To find: Length of GH.

Sol: EC = CH = 9 (Radius of the same circle are equal)

Now, GC = GH + CH

GC = GH + 9

Now In ΔEGC, using pythagoras theorem,

$(Hypotenuse)^{2} = (Base)^{2} +(Altitude)^{2}$ ......(ΔEGC is a right triangle)

$(GC)^{2} = (GE)^{2} +(EC)^{2}$

$(GH + 9)^{2} = (9)^{2} +(12)^{2}$

$(GH )^{2} + (9)^{2} + 18GH = 81 + 144$

$(GH )^{2} + 81 + 18GH = 81 + 144$

$(GH )^{2} + 18GH = 144$

Now, Let GH = <em>x</em>

$x^{2} +18x = 144$

On rearranging,

$x^{2} +18 x - 144 = 0$

$x^{2} - 6x +24x + 144 = 0$

$x (x-6) + 24 (x - 6) =0$

$(x - 6) (x + 24) = 0$

So x = 6 and x = - 24

∵ x cannot be - 24 as it will not satisfy the property of right triangle.

Therefore, the length of line segment GH = 6 units. so, Option (D) is the correct answer.

Whats the answer to that question?

gavmur [86]

Answer:

-0.9090... can be written as $\frac{10}{11}$ .

Explanation:

Any <em>repeating </em>decimal can be written as a fraction by dividing the section of the pattern to be repeated <em>by </em>9's.

We can start by listing out

0.909090... = 9/10 + 0/100 + 9/1000 + 0/10000 + 9/100000 + 0/1000000 + ...

Now. we let this series be equal to x, that is

$x$ = 9/10 + 0/100 + 9/1000 + 0/10000 + 9/100000 + 0/1000000 + ...

Now, we'll multiply both sides by 100 .

$100x$ = 90 + 0 + 9/10 + 0/100 + 9/1000 + 0/10000 + ...

Then, subtract the 1st equation from the second like so:

$100x$ = 90 + 0 + 9/10 + 0/100 + 9/1000 + 0/10000 + 9/100000 + 0/1000000 + ...

$-x$ = - 9/10 - 0/100 - 9/1000 - 0/10000 - 9/100000 - 0/1000000 - ...

And we end up with this:

$99x=90$

Finally, we divide both sides by 99 in order to isolate x and get the fraction we're looking for.

$x=\frac{90}{99}$

Which can be reduced and simplified to

$x=\frac{10}{11}$

Hope this helps!

Write in point-slope form (-4,-3) m=-1

zvonat [6]

Answer:

Point-slope form: y + 3= -1(x + 4)

Slope-intercept form: y = -1x - 7

y = m * x + b,

where:

m is the slope; and

b is the intercept of the y-axis.
