It is possible to find DH based on the stated theorem

<h3>Secant-secant rule:</h3>

This rule states that if two secants are drawn from an external point to a circle, then the product of the measures of one secant's external part and that entire secant is equal to the product of the measures of the other secant's external part and that entire secant.

Mathematically:

(CG+GE)CG = (CH+HD)CH

Given the following parameters

CG=4 in

CH=5 in

GE=6 in

Substitute to check if we can find DH

(4+6)*4 = (5+DH)*5

10*4 = 25 + 5DH

40 - 25 = 5DH

15 = 5DH
DH = 3in

Therefore it is possible to find DH based on the stated theorem

Find the approximate perimeter of rectangle ABCD plotted below. B(4,5) AC -6,0) C(8,-3) D(-2,-8) Choose 1 answer: Do 5 problems

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Perimeter of rectangle ABCD = 47.62

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(length + width)

You need to find length and width

If you graph, you can pick your length length and your width

Pick two points after you graph, for $(x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2})$

Use the distance formula to find the length = $\sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1} )^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1} ^{2})}$

point B (4,5) will be point 1 and point C (8,-3) will be point 2

Substitute

length = $\sqrt{(8 - 4 )^{2} + (-3- 5 )^{2}}\\$

length = $\sqrt{80}$

length = 8.94

Use the distance formula to find the width = $\sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1} )^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1} ^{2})}$

point C (8,-3) will be point 1 and point D (-2,8) will be point 2

Substitute

width = $\sqrt{(-2 - 8 )^{2} + (8- (-3) )^{2}}\\$

width = $\sqrt{(-10 )^{2} + (11 )^{2}}\\$

width = $\sqrt{100 + 121}\\$

width = $\sqrt{221}$

width = 14.87

Now use formula P = 2(length + width)

P = 2(8.94 + 14.87)

Perimeter of rectangle ABCD = 47.62

Whats the answers can anyone answer this question please

topjm [15]

Answer:

1. B

2. A

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

10^{-2} means that you move the decimal back two times

B is the only option that represents that correctly.

2.

5 * 10^{4} = 50000

2.5 * 10^{2} = 250

50000/250 = 200

Out of the options, A is the only option in which the equation also equals 200.
