Equations don't really have x intercepts, functions or curves do. They're also known as the zeros of the function. When we set a function equal to zero we get an equation to solve, and the zeros of the function become the solutions or roots of the equation.
If a quadratic equation only has one root, that's a repeated root corresponding to a discriminant of zero.
In this example our equation is something like , or expanded
The discriminant here is
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3> The complete exercise is attached.</h3>For this exercise it is important to remember that, by definition, if an angle formed by two intersecting chords has its vertex on a circle, this is called an "Inscribed angle".
The following formula is used to calculate the measure of an Inscribed angle:
You can identify in the figure that:
Then you can substitute values into the formula and solve for "x":
Then, AC is:
