(GEOMETRY QUESTION, PLEASE HELP!!!!) For the next 7 questions, let trapezoid GHIJ be inscribed in circle Q.
1. If the measure of arc HL equals 40 degrees calculate the measure of arc IO.?
2. If m
@lgbasallote @LolWolf
@eliassaab help? thanks!
@KingGeorge @Shi
lets begin wid few observations : i) its an isosceles trap : HI || GJ , and , HG \(\cong\) IJ ii) QL is perpendicular bisector of HI , and, GJ (cuz HI || GJ)
yes
any ideas for Q1 ?
I tried and got 140 degrees
1. If the measure of arc HL equals 40 degrees calculate the measure of arc IO.? IO = LO - LI = 180 - HL = 180 - 40
Perfect !
great!
2. If m<GJI=78 degrees, calculate for m<GHI
they are congruent?
if you see, \(\angle GJI\) and \(\angle GHI\) are subtended by the same chord \(GI\) so they are congruent !
how do i calculate for GHI now?
I got 102 degrees
GHI + HGJ = 180 GHI = 180 - HGJ = 180 - GJI = 180 - 78 = 102
for #3 I got 54?
i got 54 too. you've used pythagoras or something else ?
pythagoras
#4 I got 60.
im still thinking hw to solve.. . LO
5. is the only one I really need now, I solved the others
Let the radius be r then in ΔQLI QL^2 + LI^2 = QI^2 (r-6)^2 + 18^2 = r^2 r = 30 So dia LO = 30*2 = 60
corret?
i dont see how \(\triangle\)QLI is right triangle, lets get back to this later. im working on #5 .. .
ok
arc length = \(\theta * radius\) \(\theta = 156 * \frac{\pi}{189} \) radius = ?
im stuck here... thats where you're also stuck right ?
yes!
you sure its not "arc measure" ? cuz, arc length can be anything for a given angle
it is "measure" sorry many question, I ge jumbled with my words
central angle = 2*inscribed angle
