Leo is constructing a tangent line from point Q to circle P. What is his next step? circle P and point Q on the outside of circl

e P, a segment is created from points P and Q, a set of arcs are created from point P above and below segment PQ that are greater than half the distance of segment PQ, another set of arcs are created from point Q above and below segment PQ that are greater than half the distance of segment PQ, the intersections of the created arcs are connected with a line creating point R on segment PQ Construct a circle from point Q with the radius PR. Construct the perpendicular bisector of segment PQ. Construct a circle from point R with the radius RP. Construct the perpendicular bisector of segment RQ.

Answer:

The correct option is;

Construct a circle from point R with the radius RP

Step-by-step explanation:

To draw a tangent, the following steps are required

1) A line is drawn connecting the point to the center of the circle to which the tangent is to be drawn

2) The perpendicular bisector of the line constructed to get the mid point of the line

3) From the midpoint of the line found in the step above the compass is adjusted to reach the center of the given circle and a circular arc is drawn across the circumference of the given circle

4) The point of intersection of the arcs and the circumference of the given circle are the tangent points

Therefore, the correct option is to construct a circle from point R with the radius RP.

A game is played using one die. If the die is rolled and shows 1, the player wins $5. If the die shows any number other than 1,
mash [69]

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

i had a similar question

For each roll you start with paying 2 dollars and you only with 10 dollars one out of 6 rolls (on average). 

So the cost for one play is 2 dollars and your win is 10/6. 

Value is -2+10/6=-1/3 dollars

So you lose 1/3 dollars on average with each game

since you have no limited rolls u put 1/5

this from another question but both same just different numbers

Points A(-2,3), B(-5,-4), and C(2,-1) form triangle ABC on a coordinate plane. What is the area of this triangle in square units
Veseljchak [2.6K]

1. Draw an accurate picture of the triangle in the coordinate axes, as shown in the attached picture.<span>

<span>2. Circumscribe a rectangle about the triangle, as shown in the picture. The coordinates of the points M, N, T are easily identifiable as shown in the picture.</span>

<span>3. The area of the triangle ABC is  The area of the rectangle - Area 1- Area 2- Area 3.</span>

Area 1 = 1/2(3*7)=21/2
Area 2 = 1/2(4*4)=1/2*16=8
<span>Area 3 = 1/2( 3*7)=21/2</span>

<span>Area 1+Area 2+Area 3=21/2+21/2+8=21+8=29 (units squared)</span>

<span>Area rectangle=  7*7=49 (units squared)</span>


<span>Answer: Area of triangle is 20 units squared.</span></span>

In my fish tank, the ratio of red fish to blue fish is 3:5. There are 20 blue fish. How many red fish are there?
nataly862011 [7]
First, the ratio is 3:5. which means 3 redfish for every 5 bluefish. Since there are 20 bluefish, that means that is 4x more than 3:5. The total number of redfish are 12.
