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°

Kate gave 5/6 of her CDs to Sue. Sue gave 7/8 of these to Joan. Joan gave 3/5 of these to Ann. Ann received 70 CDs how many did
olya-2409 [2.1K]
Let us assume the number of CDs Kate had = x
Number of CDs given to Sue = 5x/6
Number of CDs given to Joan = (5x/6) * ( 7/8)
                                                = 35x/48
Number of CDs given to Ann = (35x/48) * (3/5)
                                              = 7x/16
Total number of CDs Ann received = 70
Then
7x/16 = 70
x = 160
From the above deduction, it can be concluded that the number of CDs that Kate originally had was 160. I hope that this is the answer that has actually come to your help.
