In ®a shown below, radius ab is perpendicular to chord xy at point c. if xy=24 and ac=5 cm, what is the radius of the circle?

ANSWER

B. 13cm

EXPLANATION

The radius of the circle becomes the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed.

We can use the Pythagoras Theorem to obtain,

AC²+CY²=r²

This implies that,

r²=5²+12²

r²=25+144

r²=169

Take positive square root to get;

r=√169

r=13

answer is:

1.75 pounds

to plot points   for x just start at the origin (middle) and go to the left however many times it say(if the number is a positive) if the number is a negative then go right however many times it says if it is 0 go nowhere

now keep you pencil there and go up however many times it says on y(if it is positive) if it is negative then go down however many times it says. if it says 0 go nowhere.

you have just plotted a point! now when you finish plotting all of them connect them with a ruler

plot each point as (-3, 7), (0,4), (3,1), (8,-4)   in the parenthesis on the left of the comma is x and the right is y.
