See the diagram of the circumscribed polygon attached below:

Answer:

A. 14.2 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 3.7 + 3.6 + 3.4 + 1.9 + g

Let's find g.

a = 1.9 in. (Tangents drawn from an external point of a circle are congruent)

b = 3.4 - 1.9 = 1.5 in.

b = c = 1.5 in. (Tangents drawn from an external point)

d = 3.6 - 1.5 = 2.1 in.

d = e = 2.1 in. (Tangents drawn from an external point)

f = 3.7 - 2.1 = 1.6 in.

f = g = 1.6 in. (Tangents drawn from an external point)

✔️Therefore,

Perimeter = 3.7 + 3.6 + 3.4 + 1.9 + 1.6 = 14.2 in.

For safety reasons, four different alarm systems were installed in the vault containing the safety deposit boxes at a beverly hi

AleksAgata [21]

The probability any one system works is 0.99
So the probability of any one system failing is 1-0.99 = 0.01, so basically a 1% chance of failure for any one system

Multiply out the value 0.01 with itself four times
0.01*0.01*0.01*0.01 = 0.000 000 01
I'm using spaces to make the number more readable
So the probability of all four systems failing is 0.00000001
Subtract this value from 1 to get
1 - 0.00000001 = 0.99999999

The answer is 0.99999999 which is what we'd expect. The probability of at least one of the systems working is very very close to 1 (aka 100%)

WILL GIVE 30 points a scatter plot and a possible line of best fit is shown is the line of best fit accurate for the data shown

mart [117]

It passes through the center of the points. (2)
When doing a line of best fit, you want the line to have equal number of points on either side of the line.

Find the measure of a.

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

50 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that an inscribed angle in a circle is 1/2 the arc that it inscribes. So, therefore the arc is inscribed by the 25 degrees is 50. Assuming that the center of the circle is O, the center angle will be the arc measure. Knowing this, angle a is 50 degrees. If you're curious about all these theorems, they can be proved using similar triangles.

fyi, using the same logic, angle b is 25 degrees
