Answer:

It is not.

Step-by-step explanation:

For XY to be a tangent XY must be perpendicular to radius at point of contact with circle (X).

Perpendicular also means 90° angle between XY and radius.

90° angle means XYZ should be a right angled triangle

Test for right angle triangle: pythagoras theorem.

3.6²+2.7²≠1.8²

Hence not right angled. XY not a tangent.

The surface area of a swimming pool is 373 square feet. What is it’s surface area in square meters?

jeka57 [31]

The surface area of swimming pool is 373 square feet .

In this question, we have to convert square feet to square meters, that is

$1 feet = 0.3048 meter$

Squaring both sides ,

$1 feet^2 = 0.3048^2 meter^2$

$1 feet ^2 = 0.09290304 meter^2$

And

$373 feet^2 = 373* 0.09290304 meter^2$

$373 feet^2= 34.653meter^2$

What’s the answer to -3/4+9/10 simplified ?

Vika [28.1K]

1) -3•5/ 4•5 And 9•2/ 10•2 Because you want to have the same denominator. That equals -15/20 + 18/20 so you just add -15+18 to get 3/20
The answer is 3/20
