What is the length of segment AC?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Svetllana [295]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

AC = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

If segment AB is tangent to circle C, then

angle ABC is 90 degrees, so that the Pythagorean theorem applies.

AC^2

= AB^2 + BC^2

= 9.6^2 + 7.2^2   factor out 2.4

= 2.4^2(4^2+3^2)   use 3^2+4^2 = 5^2

= 2.4^2*5^2

AC = sqrt(AC^2) = sqrt(2.4^2*5^2) = 2.4*5 = 12

State if the two triangles are congruent. If they are, state how you know?

They are congruent because the right angles are congruent, the dashed lines are congruent, and the angles that are attached are congruent. The attached angles are congruent because they share two sides

The function f(t)=-5t^2+15t+50 models the approximate height in feet of an object t seconds after it is launched. how many secon
Cloud [144]
F(t) can be factored to find the zeros.
.. f(t) = -5(t -5)(t +2) . . . . f(t) = 0 for t=-2, t=5

The object hits the ground after 5 seconds.
