Answer:

inside the circle

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle centred at the origin is

x² + y² = r² ( r is the radius )

x² + y² = 25 ← is in this form

with r = \sqrt{25 = 5

Calculate the distance d from the centre to the point (- 4, 2 ) using the distance formula

d = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2    }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 4, 2)

d= \sqrt{(-4-0)^2+(2-0)^2}

   = \sqrt{(-4)^2+2^2}

   = \sqrt{16+4}

    = \sqrt{20}

    ≈ 4.5 ( to 1 dec. place )

Since 4.5 is less than the radius of 5

Then (- 4, 2 ) lies inside the circle

Given equation of the Circle is ,

\sf\implies x^2 + y^2 = 25

And we need to tell that whether the point (-4,2) lies inside or outside the circle. On converting the equation into Standard form and determinimg the centre of the circle as ,

\sf\implies (x-0)^2 +( y-0)^2 = 5 ^2

Here we can say that ,

• <u>Radius</u> = 5 units

• <u>Centre </u> = (0,0)

<u>Finding</u><u> </u><u>distance</u><u> between</u><u> </u><u>the </u><u>two </u><u>points</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

\sf\implies Distance = \sqrt{ (0+4)^2+(2-0)^2} \\\\\sf\implies Distance = \sqrt{ 16 + 4 } \\\\\sf\implies Distance =\sqrt{20}\\\\\sf\implies\red{ Distance = 4.47 }

  • Here we can see that the distance of point from centre is less than the radius.

<u>Hence </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>point</u><u> </u><u>lies </u><u>within</u><u> </u><u>the </u><u>circle</u><u> </u><u>.</u>

The people of Bridgetown wanted to build a bridge across a nearby river. Since they were poor swimmers, their master Trigonomos
VikaD [51]

Answer:

60.2 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the width of the river.  The distance from the point across from the tree to the second point is 15 m.  The angle from this point to the tree across the river is 76°.

This makes the side opposite the angle x, the width of the river.  It also means the 15 m side is adjacent to this angle.

The ratio opposite/adjacent is the ratio for tangent; this gives us the equation

x/15 = tan(76)

Multiply both sides by 15:

15(x/15) = 15(tan(76))

x = 15(tan(76)) ≈ 60.2
