1. Angle PAB is 90 degrees, as it is formed from the tanget to the circle at A, and the radius drawn to A.
2. AB=BC, because tangents drawn to a circle from the same point are equal.
3. PB is Common, so by the side-side-side congruence postulate, triangles ABP and CBP are congruent.
4. So measure of m(BPA)=x/2 and m(ABP)=73/2.
5.
, x= 107 degrees.
Answer:
13.75
Step-by-step explanation:
make a ratio between the original lengths, 11 : 5.5
then put the ratio of the enlarged lengths, 27.5 : __
now you divide 27.5 by 11 to find how many times you multiplied the lengths, 2.5.
now you multiply 5.5 by 2.5 giving you the answer of 13.75
<span>a2 – b2 = (a + b)(a – b) or (a – b)(a + b).
This is the 'Difference of Squares' formula we can use to factor the expression.
In order to use the </span><span>'Difference of Squares' formula to factor a binomial, the binomial must contain two perfect squares that are separated by a subtraction symbol.
</span><span>x^2 - 4 fits this, because x^2 and 4 are both perfect squares, and they are separated by a subtraction symbol.
All you do here to factor, is take the square root of each term.
√x^2 = x
√4 = 2
Now that we have our square roots, x and 2, we substitute these numbers into the form (a + b)(a - b).
</span>
<span>(a + b)(a - b)
(x + 2)(x - 2)
Our answer is final </span><span>(x + 2)(x - 2), which can also be written as (x - 2)(x + 2), it doesn't make a difference which order you put it in.
Anyway, Hope this helps!!
Let me know if you need help understanding anything and I'll try to explain as best I can.</span>
Answer:
y = 2x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = A(4, 7) and (x₂, y₂ ) = B(2,3)
m = 
= 
= 2 , thus
y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (2, 3), then
3 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 3 - 4 = - 1
y = 2x - 1 ← equation of line
A = b is given to us
Multiply both sides by c to get
a = b
a*c = b*c
The rule to multiply both sides by c is the multiplicative property of equality
Then on the right side, replace c with d. This replacement is possible due to the fact that c = d. This is using the substitution property.
So we go from
a*c = b*c
to this
a*c = b*d
