Answer:

c. 12

Step-by-step explanation:

PA² = (BC + PB) × PB => tangent-secant theorem

PA = 8

PB = 4

BC = ?

Substitute

8² = (BC + 4) × 4

64 = 4BC + 16

64 - 16 = 4BC + 16 - 16

48 = 4BC

48/4 = 4BC/4

12 = BC

BC = 12

irina [24]

Answer:

The answer would be 300 calories

To find the amount of calories in 8 ounces we need to make the ounce amount the same. Let x equal the number of calories.

75/2=x

To get to 8 ounces we need to multiply the bottom by 4. and what we do to the bottom we do to the top.

75*4/2*4=x

multiply

300/8=x

Which expression is equivalent to sec^2x − 1? a. cot2x b. tan2x c. csc2x d. cos2x
Nesterboy [21]
Sec^2 x - 1 = tan^2x

Proof:
Sec^2x = 1+ tan^2x

1/cos^2x = 1 + sin^2x/cos^2x

<span>1/cos^2x - sin^2x/cos^2x = 1
</span>Using common denominator:
(1-sin^2x)/cos^2x = 1
sin^2x + cos^2 x = 1
cos^2 x = 1 - sin^2x
Substituting : 
cos^2x/<span>cos^2x = 1
</span>1 = 1
