we know that

The <u>inscribed angle</u> measures half that of the arc that comprises

In this problem

∠XYZ------> is the inscribed angle

∠XYZ=\frac{1}{2}[arc\ XZ]

arc\ XZ=180\° ------> because is a diameter of the circle

substitute

∠XYZ=\frac{1}{2}[180\°]=90\°

therefore

<u>the answer is the option A</u>

90\°

Answer: a. 90°


Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the in a circle, the measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of the central angle with the same intercepted arc.

In the problem∠XYZ is the inscribed angle

∠XYZ=\frac{1}{2}\ arc(XZ)

⇒ ∠XYZ=\frac{1}{2}\angle{XZ}

Since XZ is a diameter of the circle which is a line segment, thus ∠XZ=180°

∴ ∠XYZ=\frac{1}{2}180^{\circ}=90^{\circ}

∴ ∠XYZ=90^{\circ}

Therefore, a. 90° is the measure of ∠XYZ.

The triangles in the figure are similar: ΔABC ∼ ΔDEF. Which of the following statements must be true? options: A) AB/DE=BC/EF=CA
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Answer A

Step-by-step explanation:

We see that ABC is similar to DEF. Pay attention to the order of these letters. The order that they read (left-to-right) is the order that they are similar. For example, AB is similar to DE. Despite being different triangles, they are both the <em>first two </em>letters in the triangle. So, knowing this, we can conclude that answer choice A is correct.

Answer:

180 -angle BCD

Step-by-step explanation:

if you've found angle BCD you should be able to find angle DCE as angles on a straight line equal 180°

Jada’s teacher ask her to write a three-digit number that uses the digit 4 once and the digit 7 twice. The value of one 7 needs
viva [34]
477

The value of the first 7 from the left is 70.

If you divide 70 by 10, you get the value of the second seven, 7.

Another way to know this is equivalent fractions:

1/10 = 7/10

10 X 7 = 70
1 X 7 = 7
