Given:

AB=6\ BC=r,\ CD=r,\ AD=12.

To find:

The value of r.

Solution:

We have,

AB=6\ BC=r,\ CD=r,\ AD=12.

We know that the radius is perpendicular to the tangent at the point of tangency

AD is the tangent and CD is the radius. So, CD is perpendicular to AD at point D, i.e., m\angle D=90^\circ.

Using Pythagoras theorem, we get

AC^2=AD^2+CD^2

(6+r)^2=12^2+r^2

36+12r+r^2=144+r^2

12r=144+r^2-36-r^2

On further simplification, we get

12r=108

r=\dfrac{108}{12}

r=9

Therefore, the value of r is 9.

What is the equation of a line in general form that does not have a y-intercept and goes through the point (3,6) ?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Determine the equation</u>

So we know that our equation does not have a y-intercept which means that it doesn't intersect ANYWHERE on the y-axis.  Therefore, this means that our equation will be a straight vertical line that doesn't move side to side and just goes straight up and down.  We also know that our point is (3, 6) which means that our x-value will be 3 and this is where the equation will be located.  

There are several ways to display our answer where x = 3 is the most common way which basically means give me all of the y-values for the same x value of 3.  Another way of saying it is x - 3 = 0 which either way when adding 3 to both sides gives you x = 3 which is what I usually go with.

Answer: x = 3

MissTica

since there is 5 numbers less than 6, the first time it will be 5/10 or 1/2 and then they dont get replaced meaning that the second time it is 4/9 which then when they are multiplied it is 1/2*4/9 which is 4/18 or 2/9 so the answer is 2/9

In-s [12.5K]
Answer: There would be about 6 or 7 silk fibers per 300 yard length of silk fiber.

The problem states that each thread is made of about 3 to 10 silk fibers. The the problem as for a reasonable estimation of the number of silk fibers. It would be safe to assume that a reasonable estimation would be the average (or mean) of 3 to 10.

(3 + 10) / 2 = 6.5

Since 6.5 is the average, we could use 6 or 7 as a reasonable estimation.
