#3 AB and AD are tangent to the circle centered at point C. Find the value of x. *

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

tangent lines from the same point to a circle are congruent in length, so we can say that

5x+8 = 8x-4

5x -5x +8 = 8x - 5x -4

8 = 3x - 4

8+4 = 3x -4 + 4

3x = 12

3x/3 = 12/3

x=4

Identify the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that is perpendicular to y = -1/3 x + 2 and passes through (2, 1)

Airida [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line perpendicular to another line is the opposite reciprocal of the slope of the other line, meaning if the slope of the other line is $-\frac{1}{3}$ , then the slope of the line perpendicular is $3$ .

Knowing this, we can start to construct the equation for the line:

$y = mx + b$

$y = 3x + b$

To solve for $b$ , we plug in the coordinates of the point that we know the line runs through, $(2, 1)$ :

$y = 3x + b$

$1 = 3(2) + b$

$1 = 6 + b$

$b = -5$

Therefore, the slope of the line that is perpendicular ot the line provided in the equation is the following:

$y = 3x - 5$
