A. is 21.98 cm
b. is 22 cm
Answer:
6 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Points H and F lie on circle with center C. EG = 12, EC = 9 and ∠GEC = 90°.
To find: Length of GH.
Sol: EC = CH = 9 (Radius of the same circle are equal)
Now, GC = GH + CH
GC = GH + 9
Now In ΔEGC, using pythagoras theorem,
......(ΔEGC is a right triangle)





Now, Let GH = <em>x</em>

On rearranging,




So x = 6 and x = - 24
∵ x cannot be - 24 as it will not satisfy the property of right triangle.
Therefore, the length of line segment GH = 6 units. so, Option (D) is the correct answer.
Answer:
x ≈ 11.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle
cos26° =
=
( multiply both sides by 13 )
13 × cos26° = x , then
x ≈ 11.7 ( to the nearest tenth )
