Two tangents drawn to a circle from a point outside it, are equal in length.prove it.

Answers

Answer 1
Given: A circle with centre O; PA and PB are two tangents to the circle drawn from an external point P.
To prove: PA = PB
Construction: Join OA, OB, and OP.
It is known that a tangent at any point of a circle is perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact.
OA⊥PA
OB⊥PB
In △OPA and △OPB
∠OPA=∠OPB (Using (1))
OA=OB (Radii of the same circle)
OP=OP (Common side)
Therefor △OPA≅△OPB (RHS congruency criterion)
PA=PB
(Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal)
Thus, it is proved that the lengths of the two tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal.
The length of tangents drawn from any external point are equal.
So statement is correct
Two Tangents Drawn To A Circle From A Point Outside It, Are Equal In Length.prove It.

Use the graph below to describe the linearization of the data. How would you expect the linearization to change if the data were to extend beyond age 20?

Answers

Answer:

It is expected that linearization beyond age 20 will be use a function whose slope is monotonously decreasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

The linearization of the data by first order polynomials may be reasonable for the set of values of age between ages from 5 to 15 years, but it is inadequate beyond, since the fourth point, located at [tex](x,y) = (20, 5.5)[/tex], in growing at a lower slope. It is expected that function will be monotonously decreasing and we need to use models alternative to first order polynomials as either second order polynomic models or exponential models.

The polygons in each pair are similar. Find the missing side length.

Answers

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

We can say that two polygons are similar to each other if both of the polygons have the same shape and their corresponding sides are in the same proportion, hence the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal to each other.

As we can see from the problem since both of the polygons are similar, hence the ratio of their corresponding sides are in the same proportion, therefore let x represent the missing length, hence:

[tex]\frac{x}{15} =\frac{32}{40} =\frac{32}{40} \\\\\frac{x}{15} =\frac{32}{40} \\\\x=\frac{32*15}{40} \\\\x=12[/tex]

A cube with a volume of 216 cubic feet has all but the top and bottom faces painted. What is the total area of the two unpainted sides?

Answers

The volume of a cube is Side ^3

Find the cubic root of the volume to find the side length:

Side = cubicroot(216) = 6 feet.

The area of a face of a cube is s^2

Area of a face = 6^2 = 36 square feet.

Area of 2 faces = 36 x 2 = 72 square feet

Answer: 72 square feet

Answer:

72 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the length of each side we have to cube root the volume

∛216 = 6

We only have to find the areas for two faces (the top and bottom)

6 x 6 = 36 = area for one face

36 x 2 = 72 = area for two faces

Linear Equation, y = mx+b

Exponential Equation, y = a(b)^x

PLEASE ANSWER IT I HAVE AN IMAGE ATTACHED IF NEEDED !!!!

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Linear Equation.

One of the points is (0,15). This means 0,15 is the y intercept so b=15.

We can find the slope

[tex] \frac{5 - 15}{1 - 0 } = \frac{ - 10}{1} = - 10[/tex]

So our equation is

[tex]y = - 10x + 15[/tex]

Part B: Exponential Equation

We know that

[tex]15 = a \times b {}^{0} [/tex]

B to the zero power is 1 so

[tex]15 = a[/tex]

This means a =15. Now let find b.

[tex]5 = 15 \times b {}^{1} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{1}{3} = b[/tex]

So the equation is

[tex]y = 15( \frac{1}{3} ) {}^{x} [/tex]

Javier works at a print shop. He starts printing at 8:00 a.m. The number of printed brochures is a linear function of the number of minutes since Javier started printing. By 8:50 a.m. he had printed 240 brochures, and by 9:00 a.m. he had printed 288. Write an equation in the form y = mx + b that represents the number of brochures, y, that were printed after x minutes.

Answers

Answer:

y = 4.8(x) + 0

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, Javier managed to print 240 brochures in 50minutes from 8:00 to 8:50. If we divide these values we see that he printed 4.8 brochures per minute. The same result is given for the 10 minutes from 8:50 to 9:00 where he printed 48 brochures. Therefore, we can get the following linear formula from these values.

y = 4.8(x) + 0

In this case, b would equal 0 because Javier is starting from 0 brochures made when he gets to work at 8:00 a.m

HURRY!!!!! HELP PLEASE!!!! NO SPAM!!!!!!!!!There are two identical oil tanks. The level of oil in Tank A is 6 ft and is drained at the rate of 0.5 ft/min. Tank B contains 10 ft of oil and is drained at the rate of 1 ft/min. After how many minutes will the level of oil in the two tanks be the same?

Answers

Answer:

8 munutes

Step-by-step explanation:

let :

x is the final level for both tanks (in ft) and

t is the time (in minutes)

the equation :

x = 6 - 0.5 t (eq.1)

x = 10 - 1t (eq.2)

eq. 1 = eq. 2

=>

6-0.5t = 10-1t

1t - 0.5t = 10-6

0.5t = 4

t = 4/0.5 = 8

t = 8 minutes

Answer:               8 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation for the level of oil in each tank.

Let t = the number of minutes.

Tank A: y = 6 − 0.5t

Tank B: y = 10 − 1t

Solve the system by using a table of values

When t = 8 minutes, the level in both tanks will be at 2 feet.

PLS HELP

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is classic right triangle trig. If you're solving for x, which you are, you have to consider how the given sides relate to that angle. The side with a length of 50 is opposite the angle x, while the side of length 36 is adjacent to angle x. The trig ratio that utilizes the sides opposite and adjacent is tangent; HOWEVER, we are looking for a missing angle. Finding missing angles on your calculator requires the 2nd button. To find the missing angle x, you are looking for the angle that has a tangent ratio of 50 over 36 (opposite over adjacent...Toa in SohCahToa). Hit the 2nd button on your calculator and then the tangent button (in degree mode, not radian mode) and you will see this on your screen:

[tex]tan^{-1}([/tex]

After the parenthesis, enter the fraction and then hit the enter button to get the angle measure in degrees:

[tex]tan^{-1}(\frac{50}{36})=54.2[/tex] degrees.

It's very important that you learn how to use your calculator to find the trig identities that give you the ratio in decimal form and how to find the missing angles. Missing angles always use the 2nd button along with whatever trig identity you are using.
