The angle between the two tangents drawn from an external point to a circle and the angle subtended by the line segment joining the points of the contact at the Centre are supplymentary,

So,

15.) let the unknown angle be x

=》x + 55° = 180°

=》x = 180° - 55°

=》

\boxed{x = 125°}

16. let the unknown angle be n

=》n + 80° = 180°

=》n = 180° - 80°

=》

\boxed{n = 100°}

Answer:

  15)  125°

  16  100°

Step-by-step explanation:

The short arc where two tangents intersect a circle, and the angle where the tangents meet are supplementary.

__

15) ? = 180° -55° = 125°

16) ? = 180° - 80° = 100°

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The quadrilateral formed by the tangents and the radii to the points of tangency has a total interior angle measure of 360°. The angles where the radii meet the tangents are 90°, so the sum of the external angle and the central angle is 360° -90° -90° = 180°. That is, the external angle and the central angle are supplementary.

Graph ​ y=4/7x−2 ​. Use the line tool and select two points on the line.
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Given equation of the line,

y=\frac{4}{7}x-2

If x = 0,

y=\frac{4}{7}(0) - 2=0-2=-2

Thus, the line intercepts y-axis at (0,-2)

If y = 0,

0=\frac{4}{7}x-2\implies 2=\frac{4}{7}x\implies x=\frac{14}{4}=3.5

Thus, the line intercepts x-axis at (3.5,0)

By joining these two points in the graph,

We will get the graph of the given line ( shown below )

The railing of a wheelchair ramp is parallel to the ramp. Find x and y in the diagram.
yKpoI14uk [10]

Given:

The wheel chair ramp is parallel to the ramp.

To find:

The value of x and y.

Solution:

If two lines are parallel, then the alternate interior angles are congruent.

4x° + 6y° = 86° --------- (1)

Similarly,

5x° + 6y° = 94°

Subtract 5x° from both sides.

5x° + 6y° - 5x° = 94° - 5x°

6y° = 94° - 5x° --------- (2)

Substitute (2) in (1).

4x° + 94° - 5x° = 86°

94° - x° = 86°

Subract 94° on both sides.

94° - x° - 94° = 86° - 94°

- x° = 86° - 94°

- x° = -8°

Multiply by -1 on both sides, we get

x = 8

Substitute x = 8 in (2).

6y° = 94° - 5(8)°

6y° = 54°

Divide by 6 on both sides, we get

y = 6

The value of x is 8 and y is 6.
