Answer:
The answer is C. 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
RT = 12 units
Step-by-step explanation:
From the figure attached,
ΔSRQ is right triangle.
m∠R = 90°
An altitude has been constructed from point T to side SQ.
m∠RTQ = 90°
By applying geometric mean theorem in triangle SRQ,
x² = 16 × 9
x² = 144
x = √144
x = 12
Therefore, length of altitude RT is 12 units.
The correct answer is x = 1/28y^2
The angle of a tangent and a radius is a right angle.
The missing length would be the hypotenuse. Use the Pythagorean theorem to solve.
X = SQRT(12^2 + 16^2)
X = SQRT(144 + 256)
x = SQRT(400)
X = 20
