JL is a diameter of circle K. if tangents to circle K are construvted through points L and J, what relationship would exist betw
een the two tangents? explian
1 answer:
Check the picture below.
notice, the left-hand-side of the picture is the tangents segment theorem, both tangents are the same length and the point of tangency, in red, is always a right-angle, however note that they're touching a radius segment, not a diameter one, and the radii lines are slanted some.
notice the right-hand-side of the picture, the points of tangency at J and L are right-angles, and the two tangents at those points, will simply be parallel, and never touch each other.

Answer:
(A)
Step-by-step explanation:
From the diagram attached:
Angle 1 and Angle 6 are Co-Interior Angles.
The sum of co-interior angle is 180 degrees.
Therefore:
The measure of angle 1 is therefore 56.5 degrees.
The correct option is A.
