Answer:
b = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
From an external point, the products of distances to the near circle intercept and the far circle intercept are the same. For a tangent, such as AC, point A is both the near and far intercept point, so that product is the square of the length of AC.
(AC)² = (CG)(CV)
b² = 12·27 = 324 . . . . substitute known values
b = √324 . . . . . . . . . . take the square root
b = 18
Theres 8 edges, 5 vertices, and 5 faces.
8 - 7x^2 + 3 = 4x^2 - 1
8+3-7x^2 = 4x^2-1
11-7x^2 = 4x^2-1
B. Commutative property of addition
We can swap numbers and obtain the same results.
In this case, we swapped 8+3 and added them.
