Answer:

\text{A) }68\:\mathrm{cm}

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a polygon is equal to the sum of all the sides of the polygon. Quadrilateral PTOS consists of sides TP, SP, TO, and SO.

Since TO and SO are both radii of the circle, they must be equal. Thus, since TO is given as 10 cm, SO will also be 10 cm.

To find TP and SP, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem. Since they are tangents, they intersect the circle at a 90^{\circ}, creating right triangles \triangle TOP and \triangle SOP.

The Pythagorean Theorem states that the following is true for any right triangle:

a^2+b^2=c^2, where c is the hypotenuse, or the longest side, of the triangle

Thus, we have:

10^2+TP^2=26^2,\\TP^2=26^2-10^2,\\TP^2=\sqrt{576},\\TP=24

Since both TP and SP are tangents of the circle and extend to the same point P, they will be equal.

What we know:

  • TP=SP=24
  • TO=SO=10

Thus, the perimeter of the quadrilateral PTOS is equal to 24+24+10+10=\boxed{\text{A) }68\:\mathrm{cm}}

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

<em>D. 30</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

6  ÷  1/5 <em>-given expression</em>

6  x  5   <em>-use the </em><em>keep, change, flip </em><em>method, where you</em><em> keep</em><em> the </em><u><em>first </em></u><em>number, </em><em>change</em><em> the </em><u><em>division sign</em></u><em> to a </em><u><em>multiplication sign</em></u><em>, and </em><em>flip</em><em> the f</em><u><em>raction</em></u><em> that comes after the symbol.</em>

<em>6 x 5 = 30</em>

<em>30 is the answer</em>

What does the slope of the line represent within the context of my graph
Nata [24]
The slope of the line is the velocity, or rate of change, of y with respect to x.  In other terms, the slope tells you how much y will change for every change in x by one unit.  For example if the slope, which is velocity, is 2.  y will increase by two units every time x increases by one unit.  Your graph is not pictured nor explained, so I cannot give you the specific context beyond the principle that the slope of a line is a constant velocity or rate of change.
