<span>The arithmetic sequences have a constant difference between two terms. This sequence does not match this criterion, look: 12-8 = 4; 8-5=3; 5-3=2. Then it is not arithmetic. Let's examine whether it is geometric. Geometric sequences have a constant ration between adjacent terms: given that 3/2 is different to 5/3, and both are different to 8/5 and so on, this sequence does not either match this requirement. Then the sequence is not arithmetic or geometric.</span>
Answer:
The statement is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the statement we have to tell the statement is true or false.
The statement is
"The circumcenter of a triangle is the center of the only circle that can be circumscribed about it"
The circumcenter of triangle is the point in the triangle where the perpendicular bisectors of sides intersect.
The center of the circumscribed circle is the the point where the perpendicular bisectors of the sides meet.
Hence,
The circumcenter is also center of the triangle's circumcircle - the circle that pass through all three of the triangle's vertices.
Therefore, the given statement is true.
y² = 8y - 15 (alternate angles are equal)
y² - 8y + 15 = 0
(y - 5)(y - 3) = 0
y = 5 or 3
x + 8y - 15 = 180 (angles in a straight line add up to 180)
when y = 5
x + 40 - 15 = 180
x = 155°
when y = 3
x + 24 - 15 = 180
x = 171°
