A tangent line is always perpendicular to the radius that shares the point of tangency. In other words, where your tangent line touches the circle (at only one point), that line is perpendicular to the radius at that point.
Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
130 + y = 180 {linear pair}
y = 180 - 130
y = 50°
3x - 6 +8x + 4 + 50 = 180 {Angle sum property of triangle}
3x + 8x - 6 + 4 + 50 = 180 {Combine like terms}
11x + 48 = 180
11x = 180 - 48
11x = 132
x = 132/11
x = 12°
You must realize that it depends on the function ...
