What is the measure of the tangent AB?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Liono4ka [1.6K]3 years ago
4 0
We know that
If a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a <span>circle </span><span>from an exterior point, then the square of the measure of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and its external secant segment
</span>so
AB²=BD*BC
BD=12
BC=12+15----> BC=27
AB²=12*27----> 324
AB=√324----> AB=18

the answer is
AB=18 units

Find equation of a line through 5 -3 that is parallel to y=1/2x+3
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The equation of a line through (5 -3) that is parallel to y = 1/2 x+3 is

y = - 2 x  + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the slope of the line whose equation we need to find is m 1.

The line parallel to the needed line  is:   y=1/2x+3

Comparing it with the general form: y = m x + C

we get m 2 = 1/2

Now, as Line 1 is Perpendicular to Line 2.

⇒ m 1 x m 2  = -1

⇒ m 1 x ( 1/2)  = -1

⇒ m 1  = - 2

Also, the point son the line 1 is given as: (x,y)  = (5,-3)

Put the value of point and Slope in y = m x + C to find the value of Y- INTERCEPT.

we get: -3 = (-2) (5) +  C

or, C = -3 + 10 = 7

⇒ C = 7

The general line equation is given as:  y = m x + C

Substituting  the values of C and m, we get:

y = - 2 x  + 7

Hence, the equation of a line through 5 -3 that is parallel to y = 1/2 x+3 is

y = - 2 x  + 7

In a survey of market, it is found that 143 persons use white toothpaste and 135 use red toothpaste. If 70 of them use both the
denpristay [2]

Answer:

let W and R represent white toothpaste and red toothpaste represently

n(W)=143

n(R)=135

n(WnR)=70

n( WuR)=?

Now,

n(WuR)=n(W)+n(R)_n(WnR)

=143+135_70

=208

that's all don't forget to write therefore.
