Yes, the distance from the origin to the point $(8,\sqrt{17})$ is units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. It should say ''Does $(8,\sqrt{17})$ also lie on the circle? Explain''.

The equation of a circle centered at the origin is the following :

$x^{2}+y^{2}=R^{2}$ (I)

Where '''' is a real number and the radius of the circle.

We know that the circle contains the point (0,-9) . Therefore, we can replace this information in the equation (I) to obtain the radius of the circle ⇒

$x^{2}+y^{2}=R^{2}$ ⇒

$(0)^{2}+(-9)^{2}=R^{2}$ ⇒

$R^{2}=81$ (II)

And finally the radius will be $R=\sqrt{81}$ ⇒ R=9 units

If we replace (II) in (I) we obtain :

$x^{2}+y^{2}=81$ (III)

(III) is the complete equation of the circle centered at the origin that contains the point (0,-9)

To see if the point $(8,\sqrt{17})$ lie on the circle we only need to replace the coordinates of the point in the equation (III) :

$x^{2}+y^{2}=81$

$(8)^{2}+(\sqrt{17})^{2}=81$

64+17=81

81=81

The point $(8,\sqrt{17})$ satisfies the equation (III). Therefore, it lies on the circle which equation is (III).

Now, to pick an option we need to remember the definition of a circle (centered at the origin) respect to the equation (I) :

$x^{2}+y^{2}=R^{2}$ (I)

The points (x,y) that verifies the equation (I) are located a distance '''' from the origin.

The correct option is :

Yes, the distance from the origin to the point $(8,\sqrt{17})$ is units.

Answer from: Quest

What the heck i didn’t know

Answer from: Quest

p ÷ r = tan(x)

step-by-step explanation:

given that there is a figure below shows a right triangle: a right triangle is shown with hypotenuse equal to q units and the length of the legs equal to p units and r units.

graph is missing so i will create the graph as per given information.

the angle between the legs having lengths p units and q units is y degrees. the angle between the legs having lengths r units and q units is x degrees.

now we need to find about what is p ÷ r equal to.

so we can use trigonometric ratio tan(x)=[altitude]/[base] to find the value of p ÷ r, because p is the altitude and r is the base.

$\tan\left(x\right)=\frac{\left[altitude\right]}{\left[base\right]}=\frac{p}{r}$

$\tan\left(x\right)=\frac{p}{r}$

$\frac{p}{r}=tan(x)$

p ÷ r=tan(x)

hence final answer is p ÷ r=tan(x).
