Answer:

No, we can not construct a tangent line that passes through a point A inside the circle C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tangent line:A tangent line to a circle is define as the  straight line which touches the circle at one point only. The tangent to a circle is perpendicular to the radius of circle .

The point at which tangent touches the circle is called point of contact.

If we construct a line inside the circle C and passes through point A .The constructing line not a  tangent line to a circle .

Because by definition of tangent to a circle

The constructing line does not touch the circle at one point and the point is called point of contact . The constructing line not perpendicular to radius at point of tangency.

The constructing line is a simple line not tangent which passes through a point A inside the circle C.

Therefore , we can not construct a tangent line passing through a point A inside the circle C.

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

A tangent line is a line entirely exterior to the circle except for the one point of intersection that lies on the circle. It does not (and cannot) go through any points inside the circle.

A ceiling 6 feet by 7 feet can be painted for $52. find the cost of painting a ceiling 18 feet by 21 feet, all things being equa
kykrilka [37]
6 feet * 7 feet = 42 feet²

18 feet * 21 feet = 378 feet²

42 feet²  was painted for $52

1 feet²  will be painted for $52/42

378 feet² will then be painted for:  ($52/42) * 378

                                                       = $468

Hence 18 feet by 21 feet will be painted for $468

Hope this helps.
