Find the measure indicated. Assume that the lines which appear to be tangent are tangent. PART 3
ludmilkaskok [199]

I'll do problems 13 and 14 to get you started.

=====================================================

Problem 13

<h3>Answer:  32 degrees</h3>

-----------------------

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below for problem 13. Since BD is a tangent of the circle, this means angle ABD is 90 degrees, and furthermore x+y = 90. This solves to y = 90-x.

If we focus on triangle ABC, then we can add the interior angles and set the sum equal to 180

A+B+C = 180

z+y+y = 180

z+2y = 180

z+2(90-x) = 180 .... plug in y = 90-x

z+180-2x = 180

z-2x = 180-180

z-2x = 0

z = 2x

We'll use this later.

Now move onto triangle ABD. This is a right triangle due to angle ABD being 90 degrees. The acute angles z and 26 are complementary, meaning they add to 90. So,

z+26 = 90

z = 90-26

z = 64

Now plug this into z = 2x and solve for x

z = 2x

64 = 2x

2x = 64

x = 64/2

x = 32

=====================================================

Problem 14

<h3>Answer: 31 degrees</h3>

-----------------------

Explanation:

Refer to the image shown below for problem 14. Like before, I've added various labels to it to help find the angle we're after (the red angle x).

Note how I've drawn a dashed line from point A to point D. This splits up quadrilateral ABCD into two triangles ABD and ACD. These triangles can be shown to be congruent using the HL (hypotenuse leg) theorem.

The congruent triangles also implies that angle DBC and angle BCD are the same measure (both are shown in green as the variable y).

Focus on triangle BCD. It has interior angles of: y, y and 62. Add them up, set the sum equal to 180.

y+y+62 = 180

2y+62 = 180

2y = 180-62

2y = 118

y = 118/2

y = 59

As the image attachment mentions, the angles x and y add to 90 degrees. This is because angle ABD is 90 degrees, due to segment BD being tangent to the circle. So x+y = 90 leads to x = 90-y, and therefore,

x = 90-y

x = 90-59

x = 31

Side note: it is not a coincidence that we ended up with half of the value of 62.

Use the drawing tool(s) to form the correct answer on the provided graph.
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Here's one way to do it

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Solve the inequality for y

5x - y > -3

-y > -5x - 3

y < 5x + 3

2. Plot a few points for the "y =" line

I chose

\begin{gathered}\begin{array}{rr}\mathbf{x} & \mathbf{y} \\-2 & -7 \\-1 & -2 \\0 & 3 \\1 & 8 \\2 & 13 \\\end{array}\end{gathered}

x

−2

−1

0

1

2

y

−7

−2

3

8

13

You should get a graph like Fig 1.

3. Draw a straight line through the points

Make it a dashed line because the inequality is "<", to show that points on the line do not satisfy the inequality.

See Fig. 2.

4. Test a point to see if it satisfies the inequality

I like to use the origin,(0,0), for easy calculating.

y < 5x + 3

0 < 0 + 3

0 < 3. TRUE.

The condition is TRUE.

Shade the side of the line that contains the point (the bottom side).

And you're done (See Fig. 3).

Write cos 53 degrees in terms of sine.
SOVA2 [1]
Cos(x) = sin(90 - x)
cos(53) = sin(90 - 53)
cos(53) = sin(37)

Find the distance between the points: (1,2) and (-3,0)
faltersainse [42]
You can create a right angled triangle.
Find the hypotenuse.
The third point of the triangle is (1,0)
using pythagoras, the value of a is 2, b is 3. 2^2 +3^2 = 13.
Therefore the distance between the two points is \sqrt{13}

How to do the problem
MrMuchimi
Order of operations are:
<span>1. Parentheses (simplify inside 'em)
2. Exponents
3. Multiplication and Division (from left to right)
<span>4. Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)

So, on your first one:
Parentheses first:
8(3+4)-2*8/(5-3)
8(7)-2*8/(2)

There are no exponents so multiplication and division:
56-16/2
56-8

Finally, addition and subtraction:
56-8=48

Your second problem is a bit more complicated but follows the same rules:
</span></span>( 8^{2}+(13-4) ^{2} )/5
<span><span>
Parentheses first:
</span></span>( 8^{2}+ 9^{2})/5)
<span><span>
Now, exponents. Even though they are inside parentheses, we can't go further until we simply those.
(64+81)/5

Now back to parentheses:
(145)/5

Division:
145/5=29

Hope that helps</span></span>
