ANSWER

B. 13cm

EXPLANATION

The radius of the circle becomes the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed.

We can use the Pythagoras Theorem to obtain,

AC²+CY²=r²

This implies that,

r²=5²+12²

r²=25+144

r²=169

Take positive square root to get;

r=√169

r=13

AB and AC are two equal chord of a circle, therefore the centre of the circle lies on the bisector of ∠BAC.

OA is the bisector of ∠BAC.

Again, the internal bisector of an angle divides the opposite sides in the ratio of the sides containing the angle.

P divides BC in the ratio 6:6=1:1.

P is mid-point of BC.

OP ⊥ BC.

In △ ABP, by pythagoras theorem,

AB2=AP2+BP2

BP2=36−AP2         ....(1)

In △ OBP, we have

OB2=OP2+BP2

52=(5−AP)2+BP2

BP2=25−(5−AP)2      .....(2)

From 1 & 2, we get,

36−AP2=25−(5−AP)2

36=10AP

AP=3.6cm

Substitute in equation 1,

BP2=36−(3.6)2=23.04

BP=4.8cm

BC=2×4.8=9.6cm

A rectangular field has an area of 162 m² the width of this field is 9m what is the perimeter of this field
Andru [333]

Answer:

54 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Alrighty, what have we here: an area of 162 m² and a width of 9m.

So: A=162m², W=9m, let's draw this: (see the screenshot attached)

Using the formula for area (Area = width x length) we see that:

162m^{2} =9m*L

Thus: (equating to L by dividing both sides by 9m)

⇒ \frac{162m^{2} }{9m}=18m=L

Now we have all of our dimensions, we can use the formula for the perimeter to calculate it:

perimeter=2W+2L=2*9m+2*18m=18m+36m=54m

And there we have our answer.

A single story house is to be built on a rectangular lot 70 feet wide by 100 feet deep. The shorter side of the lot is along the
dedylja [7]

Answer:

250 sq ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the shorter side is along the street and the setback is 10ft from each side, the house is 50 ft wide

and 100 -20 -30 = 50 ft long

50 x 50 = 250 sq ft
