PLEASE HELP ME!!!Omar is constructing a square inscribed in a circle. He begins by constructing a circle with a center O and wit

h a diameter connecting points A and C .
What is Omar's next step in the construction?

A
Starting at point A , use the compass with a setting of the length of the radius to mark off the radius four times around the circle.

B
Use OA¯¯¯¯¯ to construct a line tangent to the circle at point A .

C
Construct a perpendicular bisector of AC¯¯¯¯¯ , making it long enough to touch the circle above and below the diameter.

D
Construct a perpendicular bisector of OC¯¯¯¯¯ , making it long enough to touch the circle above and below the diameter.

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line through the given point with the given slope
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

y = M X + B

Step-by-step explanation:

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

x1 = 2

y1 = 5

m = 1/7

y - 5 = (1/7) (x - 2)

Indicate the equation of the line that is the perpendicular bisector of the segment with endpoints (4, 1) and (2, -5).
PtichkaEL [24]
Okay to find the perpendicular bisector of a segment you first need to find the slope of the reference segment.

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) in this case:

m=(-5-1)/(2-4)

m=-6/-2

m=3

Now for the the bisector line to be perpendicular its slope must be the negative reciprocal of the reference segment, mathematically:

m1*m2=-1  in this case:

3m=-1

m=-1/3

So now we know that the slope is -1/3 we need to find the midpoint of the line segment that we are bisecting.  The midpoint is simply the average of the coordinates of the endpoints, mathematically:

mp=((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2), in this case:

mp=((4+2)/2, (1-5)/2)

mp=(6/2, -4/2)

mp=(3,-2)

So our bisector must pass through the midpoint, or (3,-2) and have a slope of -1/3 so we can say:

y=mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-intercept, and given what we know:

-2=(-1/3)3+b

-2=-3/3+b

-2=-1+b

-1=b

So now we have the complete equation of the perpendicular bisector...

y=-x/3-1 or more neatly in my opinion :P

y=(-x-3)/3

Answer Now!! Which expression can be used to find the area, in square cm, of this parallelogram?
Phoenix [80]
A, because parallelogram is the same as a rectangle, just tilted a bit. therefore the method is just base X height.

Solve the following equation for y.<br>x-5y=-18<br>​
olganol [36]

Answer:

y=15x+185

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Add -x to both sides.

x−5y+−x=−18+−x

−5y=−x−18

Step 2: Divide both sides by -5.

−5y−5=−x−18−5

y=15x+185
