Answer:

It is not tangent

Step-by-step explanation:

If it were tangent, that angle A would have to equal 90 degrees since that just the definition of a line tangent to a circle, its perpendicular to the radius.  

If it were tangent, then we could use the pythagorean theorem to check if this is a right triangle and actually has angle A with 90 degrees.  a^2+b^2=c^2

4^2+12^2 does not equal 13^2.

If segment AC was 5, then it would be tangent but since its 4, the pythagorean theorem doesnt match up and therefore, it doesnt make a 90degree angle

If you dont understand my stupid explanation thats hard to explain then search this up on google

If f (x)= x-3 and g (x)= 2x-4, find (f+g)(x)
const2013 [10]

(f∘g)(x) is equivalent to f(g(x)). We solve this problem just as we solve f(x). But since it asks us to find out f(g(x)), in f(x), each time we encounter x, we replace it with g(x).

In the above problem, f(x)=x+3.

Therefore, f(g(x))=g(x)+3.

⇒(f∘g)(x)=2x−7+3

⇒(f∘g)(x)=2x−4

Basically, write the g(x) equation where you see the x in the f(x) equation.

f∘g(x)=(g(x))+3 Replace g(x) with the equation

f∘g(x)=(2x−7)+3

f∘g(x)=2x−7+3 we just took away the parentheses

f∘g(x)=2x−4 Because the −7+3=4

This is it

g∘f(x) would be the other way around

g∘f(x)=2(x+3)−7

now you have to multiply what is inside parentheses by 2 because thats whats directly in front of them.

g∘f(x)=2x+6−7

Next, +6−7=−1

g∘f(x)=2x−1

Its a lts easier than you think!

Hope this helped
