What is the value of x ?

Mathematics

Ivan3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two secants drawn from an external point to the circle, then

The product of the external part and the whole of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the whole of the other secant, that is

x(x + 21) = (x + 1)(x + 1 + 14)

x² + 21x = (x + 1)(x + 15) ← expand using FOIL

x² + 21x = x² + 16x + 15 ( subtract x² + 16x from both sides )

5x = 15 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 3

Matrix A is said to be involutory if A2 = I. Prove that a square matrix A is both orthogonal and involutory if and only if A is
goblinko [34]

Answer:

4 · 1/4 (I-0) = (A-0)∧2

see details in the graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Matrix A is expressed in the form A∧2=I

To proof that Matrix A is both orthogonal and involutory, if and only if A is symmetric is shown by re-expressing that

A∧2=I in the standard form

4 · 1/4 (I-0) = (A-0)∧2

Re-expressing

A∧2 = I as a graphical element plotted on the graph

X∧2=I

The orthogonality is shown in the graphical plot displayed in the picture. Orthogonality expresses the mutually independent form of two vectors expressed in their perpendicularity.
