Answer:

When we have a quadratic equation:

a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0

There is something called the determinant, and this is:

D = b^2 - 4*a*c

If D < 0, then the we will have complex solutions.

In our case, we have

5*x^2 - 10*x + c = 0

Then the determinant is:

D = (-10)^2 - 4*5*c = 100 - 4*5*c

And we want this to be smaller than zero, then let's find the value of c such that the determinant is exactly zero:

D = 0 = 100 - 4*5*c

    4*5*c = 100  

       20*c = 100

            c = 100/20 = 5

As c is multiplicating the negative term in the equation, if c increases, then we will have that D < 0.

This means that c must be larger than 5 if we want to have complex solutions,

c > 5.

I can not represent this in your number line, but this would be represented with a white dot in the five, that extends infinitely to the right, something like the image below:

the length of a tangent from a point a at distance 5 cm from the centre of the circle is 4 cm find the radius of the circle ​
Semenov [28]

The radius of the circle is 3 cm.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Refer the attached diagram, the circle with centre O. In that given, AB is tangent given as 4 cm and distance of point from the circle, OA = 5 cm

As AB is tangent, OB (radius of circle) is perpendicular to AB (tangent at any point of circle). Therefore the angle of OBA is 90 degree.

Also, triangle OAB is a right angled triangle (refer attached diagram). By using Pythagoras theorem in right angled triangle,

             (\text {Hypotenuse})^{2}=(\text {Height})^{2}+(\text {Base})^{2}

             (O A)^{2}=(O B)^{2}+(A B)^{2}

Substitute the given values in the above expression, we get

             (5)^{2}=(O B)^{2}+(4)^{2}

             (O B)^{2}=25-16=9

Taking square root on both side, we get

              Radius of the circle, OB = 3 cm
