Answer:

65°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure we can see a circle.

It is given that, measure of arc AD = 80° therefore m<ACD = 80/2 = 40°

Also m<D = 75°

<u>To find the measure of <DCQ</u>

We know that, an angle made by a tangent and chord is equal to the angle made by the angle made by the chord on other side of the circle.

Here m<DCQ = m<CAD

By using angle sum property,

m<CAD + m<ACD + m<D = 180

m<CAD + 40 + 75 = 180

m<CAD + 115 = 180

m<CAD = 180 - 115 = 65°

Therefore m<DCQ = m< CAD = 65°

The correct answer is third option.

Answer:

A, B, C, and D, all options are correct.

A is correct because,

∠2 and ∠3 are corresponding angles.

B is correct because,

∠5 and ∠7 are corresponding angles.

C is correct because,

∠2 and ∠4 are corresponding angles.

D is correct because,

∠5 and ∠6 are alternate interior angles.

Note,

If two lines parallel, then

Corresponding angles are equal.
Alternate interior angles are equal.

5 consecutive integers of 265

JulsSmile [24]

N+n+1+n+2+n+3+n+4=265

5n+10=265

5n=255

n=51

So the integers are:

51,52,53,54, and 55

Ming has a standard 52-card deck. A standard 52-card deck has 4 suits (♠, ♣,♦, and ♥) and an equal number of cards of each suit.

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cards = 52

Total number of cards of each suit (♠, ♣,♦, and ♥) = 13

The probability of getting a card of heart is

$\text{Probability of getting a card of heart}=\frac{\text{Number of heart cards}}{\text{Total number of cards}}$

$\text{Probability of getting a card of heart}=\frac{13}{52}$

$\text{Probability of getting a card of heart}=\frac{1}{4}$

The probability of getting a card other then heart is

$1-\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}$

If Ming randomly draw a card from the deck 300 times, putting the card back in the deck after each draw, then the number of cards she will draw something other than a heart is

$300\times \frac{3}{4}=225$

Close to 225 times but probably not exactly 225 times.

Therefore, the correct option is D.
