Answer:
The chord is bisected.
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
In the circle of the figure
The diameter is the segment DE
The chord is the segment AB
PA=PB=r ----> radius of the circle
Triangles PAC and PBC are congruent right triangles by SSS
Because
PA=PB
PC is a common side
AC=BC ----> Applying Pythagoras Theorem
therefore
The chord AB is bisected
Answer
Length = 10 ft
Width = 5 ft
Explanation
Area of the rectangle given = 50 ft²
Let the width of the rectangle be x
So this means the length of the rectangle will be 3x - 5
What to find:
The dimensions of the rectangle.
Step-by-step solution:
Area of a rectangle = length x width
i.e A = L x W
Put A = 50, L = 3x - 5, W = x into the formula.
The quadratic equation can now be solve using factorization method:
Since the dimension can not be negative, hence the value of x will be = 5.
Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle will be:
