So if OP is a segment joining center O to point P, the MN is touching the circle on point P so it would be line MN.

Answer: Line MN

Step-by-step explanation: Line MN is tangential to the circle at point P. This means that Line MN touches the circle at exactly one point, point P without entering the circle's interior. Tangents are straight line and the point at which Line MN touches the circle is known as the point of tangency. This tangent is perpendicular to the radius of the circle at the point of tangency (point P). Tangents are also base principles to many theorems, constructions and proofs.

Sam rolled a die 75 times. On 39 of those rolls, he had a 6. Which statement is TRUE when the probabilities are compared?
svetlana [45]

Answer:

D)The experimental probability is greater than the theoretical probability

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

75 times a die is rolled out of 39 times it got 6

To Find :

Which statement is true?

Solution:

The theoretical probability is given by the ,

Pt=No.of favorable outcomes/Total outcomes

Here favorable is getting 6 on the die

so how many times we can get 6 =1 time

Total outcomes =6

Pt=1/6

Pt=0.1667

Now for

The experimental Probability ,

Pe=Number times that event occur /Total no of trails

Here 39 times we get 6 and total no trails are 75

Pe=39/75

Pe=0.52

Hence we can say that Pe>Pt.
