<h3>1. Inscribe a circle ΔJKL. Identify the point of concurrency that is the center of the circle you drew. </h3>
<h3>2. Circumscribe a circle ΔFGH. Identify the point of concurrency that is the center of the circle you drew. </h3>
To inscribe a circle in the attached triangle, we must follow the following steps. The resultant figure is the first one below.
1. Draw the angle bisector of angle JKL. The straight line in the green one.
2. Draw the angle bisector of angle KLJ. The straight line in the blue one.
3. Draw point D at these two lines.
4. Draw a line through point D perpendicular to side JK. The straight line in the red one.
5. Mark point G at the red line and side JK.
6. Draw a circle with center at D (point of concurrency) and a radius of DG.
<h3>2. Circumscribe a circle ΔFGH. Identify the point of concurrency that is the center of the circle you drew. </h3>
To circumscribe a circle in the attached triangle, we must follow the following steps:
1. Draw the perpendicular bisector of the side FG. The straight line in the red one. The resultant figure is the second one below.
2. Draw the perpendicular bisector of the side GH. The straight line in the blue one.
3. The center of the circle is the intersection of these two lines
4. Draw a circle with center at D (point of concurrency).
<h3>3. Construct the two lines tangents to circle</h3>A tangent to a circle is a straight line that touches the circle at an only point. If a point A is outside a circle, we can draw two lines that pass through this point and are tangent to the circle at two different points each. So this is shown in the third figure. Lines red and blue are tangent to the circle at two different points.
There are three possible outcomes that you may encounter when working with these system of equations:
- one solution
- no solution
- infinite solutions
We are going to try and find values of x, y, and z that will satisfy all three equations at the same time. The following are the equations:
We are going to use elimination(or addition) method
Step 1: Choose to eliminate any one of the variables from any pair of equations.
In this case it looks like if we multiply the third equation by 4 and subtracting it from equation 1, it will be fairly simple to eliminate the x term from the first and third equation.
So multiplying Left Hand Side(L.H.S) and Right Hand Side(R.H.S) of 3rd equation with 4 gives us a new equation 4.:
4. 4x-20y-12z = 20
Subtracting eq. 4 from Eq. 1:
(L.HS) : 4x-2y+5z-(4x-20y-12z) = 18y+17z
(R.H.S) : 20 - 6 = 14
5. 18y+17z=14
Step 2: Eliminate the SAME variable chosen in step 2 from any other pair of equations, creating a system of two equations and 2 unknowns.
Similarly if we multiply 3rd equation with 3 and then subtract it from eq. 2 we get:
(L.HS) : 3x+3y+8z-(3x-15y-9z) = 18y+17z
(R.H.S) : 4 - 15 = -11
6. 18y+17z = -11
Step 3: Solve the remaining system of equations 6 and 5 found in step 2 and 1.
Now if we try to solve equations 5 and 6 for the variables y and z. Subtracting eq 6 from eq. 5 we get:
(L.HS) : 18y+17z-(18y+17z) = 0
(R.HS) : 14-(-11) = 25
0 = 25
which is false, hence no solution exists
