Answer:
Th correct option is D. 13
Therefore the value of x is 13.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
measure of an intercepted arc = 86°
Center Angle = 86°
measure of the inscribed angle creating the intercepted arc= (3x+4)°
Angle Inscribed in arc = (3x+4)°
To Find:
value of x = ?
Solution:
Inscribed Angle Theorem:
The inscribed angle theorem states that an angle θ inscribed in a circle is half of the central angle 2θ that subtends the same arc on the circle.
Substituting the values we get
Therefore the value of x is 13.
Answer:
Height of the cliff = 13.66 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height of the cliff is 'x' m and distance between the base of the cliff and the boat is 'y' m.
From right triangle AOC,
tan 30° =
y = ------(1)
From right angle triangle BOC,
tan 45° =
x = y - 10
y = x + 10 -------(2)
From equations (1) and (2),
x = 13.66 m
Therefore, height of the cliff is 13.66 m.
