Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles are vertical angles and vertical angles are equal

5x = 3x+12

Subtract 3x from each side

5x -3x = 3x+12-3x

2x= 12

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 12/2

x = 6

Answer:

$(x-230)^2+(y-220)^2=6100$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a circle is $(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$ , where $(h,k)$ is the vertex of the circle and $r$ is the radius. Immediately, since the center of the circle is given, we know what $h$ and $k$ are. $h$ is 230 and $k$ is 220.

The only thing we need to find is the radius, which will just be the distance from the center (230,220) to a point on the circumference (170,170). The distance between them can be calculated using the <u>distance formula</u>, which is really just the <u>Pythagorean Theorem</u> rearranged. The formula states that $d=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$ , where $x$ is the change in the x-coordinates of the two points and $y$ is the change in the y-coordinates of the two points. Plug-in $x$ for 60 and $y$ for 50 to get $d=\sqrt{50^2+60^2}$ . Solve for $d$ , arriving at $\sqrt{6100}$ . Therefore, the radius of the circle is $\sqrt{6100}$ .
