In both cases,
(as a consequence of the interesecting secant-tangent theorem)
So we have
10.
(omit the negative solution because that would make at least one of AB or AD have negative length)
11.
(again, omit the solutions that would give a negative length for either AB or AD)
Answer:
The sum of a negative and a negative is always a positive
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
970
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
SAS
Step-by-step explanation:
We can automatically eliminate the HL answer choice, since the given triangles aren't right triangles. The only answer choices that could make sense would be ASA or SAS, but there is no ASA choice, so the answer would be SAS.
The two are perpendicular to each other because the two slopes are negative reciprocals
(Y2 - Y1) / (X2 - X1)
First slope:
( 1 - (-1)) / (-11 - (-6))
2/-5
Second slope:
(-13 - (-8)) / (-5 - (-3))
-5/-2 or 5/2
You know when two aliens are perpendicular when you multiply the two slopes and get -1 as the product
-2/5 X 5/2 = -1
Thus the two lines are perpendicular to each other.
