Answer:

  yes, no, no

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle will be a right triangle if the sum of the squares of the two short sides, less the square of the long side, is zero. (This is what the Pythagorean theorem tells you.) The angle where the radius meets the circle must be a right angle if the line is to be a tangent.

__

a) 3^2 +4^2 -5^2 = 9 + 16 -25 = 0 . . . . AB is a tangent

__

b) 9^2 +15^2 -18^2 = 81 +225 -324 = -18 . . . . AB is not a tangent

__

c) 10^2 +48^2 -52^2 = 100 +2304 -2704 = -300 . . . . AB is not a tangent

GarryVolchara [31]
So we have to simplify this equation:
4x+5-10+3x=57
Add like terms:
7x-5=57
Then add 5 to both sides:
7x=62
x=62/7
