Answer:

x = 170 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

A tangent to a circle is perpendicular to the radius of the circle at the point of tangency. That means that in quadrilateral AOBC, angles A and B are right angles and measure 90 deg.

The sum of the measures of the angles of an n-sided polygon is

(n - 2)180 deg

In this case, n = 4, so

(4 - 2)180 deg = 360 deg

m<A + m<O + m<B + m<C = 360

90 + x + 90 + 10 = 360

x + 190 = 360

x = 170

Answer: 170 deg

AOB ( x) + ACB = 180

AOB (x) + 10 = 180

x = 180-10

x = 170

Quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in a circle.

alexdok [17]

When a quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle, the opposite angles are supplementary.

x + 2 + 3x + 6 = 180
4x + 8 = 180
4x = 172
x = 43

Now solve for A
3(43) + 6 = A
129 + 6 = A
135 = A

The measure of angle A is 135 degrees.

Hope this helps =)

Solve the Differential equation (x^2 + y^2) dx + (x^2 - xy) dy = 0

natita [175]

Answer:

$\frac{y}{x}-2ln(\frac{y}{x}+1)=lnx+C$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given differential equation,

$(x^2 + y^2) dx + (x^2 - xy) dy = 0$

$\implies \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{x^2 + y^2}{x^2 - xy}----(1)$

Let y = vx

Differentiating with respect to x,

$\frac{dy}{dx}=v+x\frac{dv}{dx}$

From equation (1),

$v+x\frac{dv}{dx}=-\frac{x^2 + (vx)^2}{x^2 - x(vx)}$

$v+x\frac{dv}{dx}=-\frac{x^2 + v^2x^2}{x^2 - vx^2}$

$v+x\frac{dv}{dx}=-\frac{1 + v^2}{1 - v}$

$v+x\frac{dv}{dx}=\frac{1 + v^2}{v-1}$

$x\frac{dv}{dx}=\frac{1 + v^2}{v-1}-v$

$x\frac{dv}{dx}=\frac{1 + v^2-v^2+v}{v-1}$

$x\frac{dv}{dx}=\frac{v+1}{v-1}$

$\frac{v-1}{v+1}dv=\frac{1}{x}dx$

Integrating both sides,

$\int{\frac{v-1}{v+1}}dv=\int{\frac{1}{x}}dx$

$\int{\frac{v-1+1-1}{v+1}}dv=lnx + C$

$\int{1-\frac{2}{v+1}}dv=lnx + C$

$v-2ln(v+1)=lnx+C$

Now, y = vx ⇒ v = y/x

$\implies \frac{y}{x}-2ln(\frac{y}{x}+1)=lnx+C$

Aaron is reading a graph of equivalent ratios. If one of the ratios is represented as (6, 2), which could be another ratio?

evablogger [386]

There Are Unlimited Equivalent Ratios To This! For One, We Could Simplify This Ratio To 3,1.Another One Would Be 12,4. You See, It Can Be Any Ratio As Long As It Equals(Simplified) To 3/1. I Hope This Helps!
