Answer:

The measure of angle ALO = 35°

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about the tangents to a circle drawn from a point

 outside the circle:

- They are equal in length

- They are perpendicular to the radii at the point of tang-ency

- If we join the points of tang-ency withe the center of the circle

 and join the outside point with center of the circle, we

 formed two congruent triangles

* Now lets check our problem

- AL and LB are two tangents to the circle O ant points A and B

∴ LA = LB ⇒ (1)

- OA and OB are radii in circle O

∴ OA = OB ⇒ (2)

∴ OA ⊥ AL and OB ⊥ BL ⇒ radius and tangent

∴ m∠OAL = 90° , m∠OBL = 90

∴ m∠OAL = m∠OBL ⇒ (3)

* From (1) , (2) , (3)

- The two triangles LAO and LBO are congruent ⇒ SAS

- SAS is one case of congruence

∵ The lengths of two sides and the measure of the including

  angle between them in one triangle equal to the

  corresponding sides and angles in the second triangle,

  then the two triangles are congruent

∴ m∠LOA = m∠LOB

∵ m∠AOB = 110°

∴ m∠LOA = m∠LOB = 110/2 = 55°

* In ΔLAO

∵ m∠ LAO = 90° , m∠LOA = 55°

∴ m∠ALO = 180 - (90 + 55) = 180 - 145 = 35°

* The measure of angle ALO = 35°

If 20 is added to the number, the absolute value of the result is 6.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

(20+x)*2=x-6

40+2x=x-6

40=-x-6

46=-x

check:

x=-46

20-46*2=-46-6

-26*2=-52

-52=-52

x=-46

Of the 52 cards in the deck, four are aces and others (kings, queens, jacks, and tens) are worth 10 points each. The dealer has
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

64 different black jack hands

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 4 aces in a deck, and you can score a blackjack if any of these 4 aces is paired with any of the 16 different cards that are worth 10 points. Total number of different blackjack combinations = 4 aces x 16 different tens = 64.

Even though the number of possible blackjack hands might seem large, the possibilities of actually getting one are really low:

possibility of getting 1 ace = 4/52 = 1/13

possibility of getting 1 ten = 16/51

possibility of getting a blackjack = 16 / 663

if you start with the 10 first the odds are the same:

possibility of getting 1 ten = 16/52 = 4/13

possibility of getting 1 ace = 4/51

possibility of getting a blackjack = 16 / 663
