Answer:
15.5
Step-by-step explanation:
So the formula here is the square of the tangent length is equal to the product of the exterior part of the secant line and total length of the secant.
So that means we have x^2=10(14+10).
After simplifying the right hand side we have the equation is x^2=10(24) or x^2=240.
To get rid of the square on the x, we square root both sides.
x=sqrt(240)
x=15.49193338
To the nearest tenths, the answer is x=15.5
So 15.5 inches is the length of x.
Answer:
Four hundered eight thousand five hundered nintey
Step-by-step explanation:
(DON´T FORGET TO ADD ¨UNITS¨ OR WHATEVER YOU ARE COUNTING/MEASURING!!!!)
Using the modified Pythagorean equation sqrt((6-4)^2 + (2-(-2))^2 = c^2, you get the sqrt(4 + 16) or sqrt 20. Factor the 20 into sqrt(4x5) you get 2xsqrt(5)
1 inch → 265 feet
23.25 inches → 265 x 23.25 = 6161.25 feet
Answer: 6161.25 feet
Lets x = width
height = 2x - 4
A = 1/2 b h
63 = 1/2 (x)(2x-4)
126 = 2x^2 - 4x
2(x^2 - 2x - 63) = 0
2(x - 9)(x + 7) = 0
x - 9 = 0; x = 9
x + 7 = 0; x = -7
so width = 9
height = 2(9) - 4 = 18 - 4 = 14
answer
width = 9 in
height = 14 in
