Answer:
Let P be the external point. O be the origin. join O and P get OP and nearest point on the circle from P be A.
Let Q be the point onthe circle in which, tangent make 90° with radius at Q.
PQ = 8 and OQ = 6
we get a right angled triangle PQO right angled at Q.
so, OP^2 = OQ^2 + PQ^2= 8^2 + 6^2 = 64 + 36 =1==
therefore OP =10cm
we need nearest point from P, which is PA
PA = OP - OA= 10 -6=4cm
Answer:
1.714 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
slope is rise over run.
rise would be the vertical measurement and run would be the horizontal measurement.
24/14 = 12/7
12/7 = 1.714
