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.

Alicia wants to bake a cake with ⁹/10 grams of flour.However,she only has ⅓ grams of flour she needs.How much does she have?
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

We know that:

She needs 9/10 grams of flour for the cake (this quantity does not make a lot of sense, maybe is written incorrectly, but is the only info we have, so let's solve the problem with this)

She only has 1/3 of the amount she needs.

How much flour does she have?

Well, she needs 9/10 grams, and she has one-third of that.

Then she has (1/3) times (9/10) grams, this is:

F = (1/3)*(9/10) grams

F = (1*9)/(3*10) grams

F = 9/30 grams

That is the amount of flour that she has.
