Answer:

mBCD = 28°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle mBFD inscribes the arc mBD, so we have that:

mBFD = mBD/2

76 = mBD/2

mBD = 152°

The angle mBOD is a central angle related to the arc mBD, so we have that:

mBOD = mBD = 152°

In the quadrilateral BODC, the sum of internal angles needs to be equal to 360° (property of all convex quadrilaterals). The angles mCBO and mCDO are right angles, because EDC and ABC are tangents to the circle.

So, we have that:

mBOD + mCDO + mBCD + mCBO = 360

152 + 90 + mBCD + 90 = 360

mBCD = 360 - 90 - 90 - 152

mBCD = 28°

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 4 times the smallest side. The third side is 4√15 cm. Find the length of the smallest side
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

x=4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

x=smallest side

4x=hypotenuse

4√15=third side

use the Pythagorean Theorem

(4x)^2=x^2+(4√15)^2

16x^2=x^2+240

16x^2-x^2=240

15x^2=240

x^2=240/15

x^2=16

x=√16

x=4 cm is the smallest side

the hypotenuse is 16 cm

the third side is 4√15 cm
