we know that

The <u>inscribed angle</u> measures half that of the arc that comprises

In this problem

∠XYZ------> is the inscribed angle

∠XYZ=\frac{1}{2}[arc\ XZ]

arc\ XZ=180\° ------> because is a diameter of the circle

substitute

∠XYZ=\frac{1}{2}[180\°]=90\°

therefore

<u>the answer is the option A</u>

90\°

Answer: a. 90°


Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the in a circle, the measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of the central angle with the same intercepted arc.

In the problem∠XYZ is the inscribed angle

∠XYZ=\frac{1}{2}\ arc(XZ)

⇒ ∠XYZ=\frac{1}{2}\angle{XZ}

Since XZ is a diameter of the circle which is a line segment, thus ∠XZ=180°

∴ ∠XYZ=\frac{1}{2}180^{\circ}=90^{\circ}

∴ ∠XYZ=90^{\circ}

Therefore, a. 90° is the measure of ∠XYZ.

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

30x = (60)(40)

30x = 240                 Multiply 60 and 40

x = 8                          Divide 30 from both sides

The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x):
Goshia [24]
The slope of f is 10 because as x increases by 1, f(x) increases by 10.The slope of g is lesser at 5, because every time x increases it only increases by 5. By plugging in 1 and 2 to g(x), we can see that g(2)=11, which is 5 more than g(1)=6.

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Revenue and Expense = $230

No. of attendees: 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the no. of attendees

Expense = 50 + 18n

Revenue = 23n

Break even when:

50 + 18n = 23n

50 = 5n

n = 10

23n = 230
