Answer:
42 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a triangle = (1/2)(base)(height)
A = 1/2(12)(7)
A = 1/2(84)
A = 42
The y has to be negative but the x positive. So that leaves only (3,-4)
5x + 5x +3x (like terms)
13x-60=180
180+60=240
240/13=18.4615
X=18.4615
I hope this is correct.
(There are so many different ways to do math problems like this) I hope I could help... sorry if I didn’t.
From the equation, you can see that (3,-2) is the center of the circle (the terms are 0 for those x,y values). The mentioned point has the same y value as the center. That's good news, because it tells us that the tangent line is exactly vertical. The x coordinate is given as x=8. Vertical lines have an equation of x=... so x=8 is the right answer.
