Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are to show by Pythagoras that the square will fit inside the circle without touching the edge of the circle , this means that we must find the value of the length of the diagonal of the square using Pythagoras.
For the square to fit in without touching the edge of the circle , this means that the diagonal of the square must be less than the diameter of the circle.
Length of the square is 5cm.
Recall Pythagoras theorem: it states that
the square on the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle is equal in area to the sum of the squares on the other two sides
= +
= 25 + 25
= 50
Take the square root of both sides , that is
D =
D = X , since 50 = 25 x 2
D = 5
D ≈ 7.07
F(X) = (3x + 5)/X
F(a + 2) = (3(a + 2) + 5)/(a + 2)
F(a + 2) = (3a + 6 + 5)/(a+2)
F(a + 2) = (3a + 11)/(a + 2).
This would be the final solution.
In the figure we have three right angles .The triangles similar to each other .Similar triangles have sides in proportion .The altitude rule is true for the triangles .
The theorem states :The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the mean proportional between the segments into which it divides the hypotenuse.
Substituting the values from the triangles we ahve:
s is the right answer
