Mathematics

Natali [406]3 years ago

Consider, in ΔRPQ,

RP = R (Radius of larger circle)

PQ = r (radius of smaller circle)

We have to find, RQ, by Pythagoras theorem,

RP² = PQ²+RQ²

R² = r²+RQ²

RQ² = R²-r²

RQ = √(R²-r²

Now, as RQ & QS both are tangents of the smaller circle, their lengths must be equal. so, RS = 2 × RQ

RS = 2√(R²-r²)

How do you do square roots totem pole
Igoryamba
Well the square root of a number is a number times its self equaling the number you're getting the square root of. For example:

<span>√ 25
</span>
To get sqrt of 25 we need to find a number times its self that equals 25. Lets try 8.

8 x 8 = 64

Well thats much too high, We'll try a lower number.

4 x 4 = 16

Just a little higher.

5 x 5 = 25

Since 5 times itself equals 25 that makes it the sqrt.

So, the √ 25 is 5.
