A circumscribed angle is that which is formed by the intersection of the two tangent lines in a circle. With this, we can conclude that segments AC and AB are tangent to circle O. The tangent lines forms a right angle with the radius of the circle drawn from the center of the circle to the tangent point.
By the explanation above, we can say that angles C and B are equal to 90° and that triangle ACO and triangle ABO are congruent. Which means that segment AC is equal to segment AB. Thus, the length of AB is also 4.
<em>Answer: 4 units</em>
Answer:
For number 1, -1.125 and -9/8. For number 2, -46.
Step-by-step explanation:
A point (-0.8, 0.6) will be a point on the unit circle in the second quadrant. Since it is a unit circle, its radius is 1, and we have
sin(α) = y = 0.6
cos(α) = x = -0.8
tan(α) = y/x = 0.6/-0.8 = -0.75
The angle is α = arccos(-0.8) ≈ 143.13°
______
For the unit circle, the trig values are always the coordinates or their ratio as shown above, regardless of quadrant.
