3 0

In order to solve an equation by factoring, it should be that the equation is equal to zero.
m^2 + 8m + 7 = 0
For this case we have, to do completing the square in order to factor this equation.

m^2 + 8m = -7
m^2 + 8m + 16 = -7 +16
(m+4) (m+4) = 9
(m+4)^2 = 9

Take the square root of both sides,
m+4 = 3
m = -1

If y is the circumcenter is angle STU find each measure

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Measures are SV=9 units., SY=14 units, YW= $\sqrt75units$ , YW= $\sqrt27units$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Y is the circumcenter of ΔSTU. we have to find the measures SV, SY, YW and YX.

As Circumcenter is equidistant from the vertices of triangle and also The circumcenter is the point at which the three perpendicular bisectors of the sides of the triangle meet.

Hence, VY, YW and YX are the perpendicular bisectors on the sides ST, TU and SU.

Given ST=18 units.

As VY is perpendicular bisector implies SV=9 units.

Also in triangle VTY

$YT^{2}=VY^{2}+VT^{2}$
