Answer:

31

Step-by-step explanation:

In circle S: XB and XD are tangents at B and D

then SB perpendicular to AX and SD perpendicular to XC

In triangle SDX:  SD = 12 and SX =20 by using Pythagoras Theorem

XD=\sqrt{20^{2} -12^{2} }=16

XD = XB  tangents to circle S from point X

XA = XC tangents to circle R from point X

then BA = DC = 15

then XC = XD + DC = 16 + 15 = 31

On a coordinate plane, triangles R S T and L M N are shown. Triangle R S T has points (5, 5), (2, 1), and (1, 3). Triangle L M N
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

LMN has a larger area

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

RST

R =(5,5)

S= (2,1)

T = (1,3)

LMN

L = (0,-1)

M= (2,-4)

N= (-2,-3)

Required

Compare both areas

The area of triangle is:

Area = \frac{1}{2}|x_1y_2 - x_2y_1 + x_2y_3 - x_3y_2 + x_3y_1 - x_1y_3|

For RST, we have:

Area = \frac{1}{2}|5*1 - 2*5 + 2*3 - 1*1 + 1*5 - 5*3|

Area = \frac{1}{2}|-10|

Remove absolute signs

Area = \frac{1}{2}*10

Area = 10

For LMN, we have:

Area = \frac{1}{2}|x_1y_2 - x_2y_1 + x_2y_3 - x_3y_2 + x_3y_1 - x_1y_3|

Area = \frac{1}{2}|0*-4-2*-1+2*-3--2*-4--2*-1-0*-3|

Area = \frac{1}{2}|-14|

Remove absolute signs

Area = \frac{1}{2}*14

Area = 7

<em>By comparing both areas, we can conclude that LMN has a larger area</em>
