Point B is a point of tangency. Find the radius r of OC.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Bumek [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

r = 16 units

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

AB is the tangent drawn from a point A to the circle C.

BC = r [Radius of the circle]

Length of AC = (18 + r)

AB = 30

By the property of a tangent drawn to a circle,

"Radius of a circle and tangent are perpendicular to each other"

AB ⊥ BC

By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC,

AB² + BC² = AC²

(30)² + r² = (r + 18)²

900 + r² = r² + 36r + 324

36r = 900 - 324

r = \frac{576}{36}

r = 16 units

Find the geometric mean between each pair of numbers.40 and 15
kirill [66]

Given a N quantity of numbers, the Geometric Mean is equal to the N-th root of product of the N numbers

In this case, we have two numbers, then we need to multiply them and take square root:

\sqrt{40\cdot15}=\sqrt[]{600}=\sqrt[]{100\cdot6}=\sqrt[]{100}\cdot\sqrt[]{6}=10\sqrt[]{6}

The answer is:

10√6

Rounded is Approximately 24.5

Answer:

85+(5x-10)=11x+3 (sum of two non-adjacent interior angle is equal to exterior angle )

75+5x=11x+3

75-3=11x-5x

6x=72

x=72/6

x=12

Given the function h(x) = x2 – 7x + 6, determine the average rate of change of
guapka [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

the average rate of change between two input values is the total change of the function values (output values) divided by the change in the input values.

so,

(h(7) - (h(3)) / (7 - 3)

h(7) = 7² - 7×7 + 6 = 49 - 49 + 6 = 6

h(3) = 3² - 7×3 + 6 = 9 - 21 + 6 = -6

7 - 3 = 4

(6 - -6)/4 = 12/4 = 3

the average change rate in that interval is 3 (or fully 3/1).

The distance from the Earth to Saturn averages 886 million (886,000,000) miles. Write this number in scientific notation.
kiruha [24]

Answer:

8.86 x 10^8

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific notation means that you represent the standard form of a number like this:

number less than ten x 10 to the ___ power

In standard form, the decimal point is at the end of 886,000,000.

You have to move the decimal point to the left until it creates a number less than 10, but greater than 1:

8.86,000,000

You count how many decimal places you moved it. In this case, it is 8.

So your answer becomes 8.86 x 10^8
