Answer:

  y = -4/3x +23/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent of interest is perpendicular to the radius at the given point on the circle. To find the perpendicular, it helps to know the slope of the radius segment. To find that, we need the center of the circle.

The center of the circle can be found by completing the square for each variable.

  (x^2 -2x) +(y^2 +4y) = 20

  (x^2 -2x +1) +(y^2 +4y +4) = 20 +1 +4

  (x -1)^2 +(y +2)^2 = 25

Comparing this equation to the standard form equation for a circle, we can find the center.

  (x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2 . . . . . . . circle of radius r centered at (h, k)

The center of circle P is (1, -2).

__

The slope m' of the line segment between (1, -2) and (5, 1) is given by ...

  m' = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m' = (1 -(-2))/(5 -1) = 3/4

The slope m of the perpendicular line is the opposite reciprocal of this, so is ...

  m = -1/m' = -1/(3/4) = -4/3

The y-intercept of the desired line can be found from ...

  b = y -mx . . . . . . . for m=-4/3 and (x, y) = (5, 1)

  b = 1 -(-4/3)(5) = 23/3

Then the equation of tangent line AB is ...

  y = mx +b

  y = -4/3x +23/3

CD and DE are equal distance so their equations are equal:
2x+7 = 4(x-3)
2x+7 = 4x-12
Subtract 2x from both sides
7 = 2x-12
Add 12 to both sides
19 = 2x
9.5 = x
Now that u have x just plug it into the equation for DE
4(9.5-3)
38-12
26 is the answer

A transversal intersects two parallel lines. The measures of a pair of alternate interior angles are 5v and 2w. The measures of
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The value of v is 6° and the value of w is 15°

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

When parallel lines are cut by a transversal line, the same-side exterior angles are supplementary and each pair of alternate interior angles is equal in measure

so

5v=2w -----> equation A

10w+5v=180 ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B and solve for w

10w+(2w)=180

12w=180

w=15°

Find the value of v

5v=2w -----> v=2w/5

v=2(15)/5=6°

therefore

The value of v is 6° and the value of w is 15°
