Answer:
? = 13.6
Step-by-step explanation:
the angle between a tangent and the diameter = 90°
Then the triangle is right with legs 2 × 6 = 12 and 6.4
using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the legs , that is
? ² = 12² + 6.4² = 144 + 40.96 = 184.96 ( take square root of both sides )
? = = 13.6
Answer:
I believe the answer is B. 15/5 = n/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Once again same method as I've explained before. However, this one tricked me a little bit and still is because of the appearance of the smaller triangle. However, If I don't focus on that I believe this answer is correct. This is because in order to find the missing side we need to find the factor of which the triangle was expanded. So we must divide a given side of the bigger triangle by the same similar side of the little triangle, like 15/5. Then we must divide n by its similar side which the appearance made me think 13 which is not an option so I believe it is 12 and it was just trying to throw me off. So n/12. Therefore that is why I believe B is correct.
(x-3)^2 + (x+5)^2=9^2
(x^2-6x+9) + (x^2+10x+25)=81
2x^2+4x+34=81
2x^2+4x-47=0
From here just use quadratic formula
Answer:
24mm
Step-by-step explanation:
since it's a similar triangle, we solve;
EH/EG=DH/DG
EH=56mm;
EG=44.8mm;
DH=35mm;
DG=X+4.
Fix them,
56/44.8=35/x+4
cross multiply
56(x+4)=35×44.8
56x+224=1,568
collect the like term
56x=1,344
divide via by 56
56x/56=1344/56
x=24mm
Check/ verify
EH/EG=DH/DG
56/44.8=35/24+4
56/44.8=35/28
CROSS MULTIPLY OVER THE EQUAL SIGN.
56×28=35×44.8
1,568=1,568
THAT'S CORRECT.
