Question

Determine whether FG is tangent to OE- Justify your answer.

® yes, using pythagorean theorem, both sides equal 144
can not be determined
O yes, using pythagorean theorem, both sides of the equation equal 136
O No, using the pythagorean theorem, both sides of the equation are not equal

Answer 1

D

Explanation:

Remark

The two legs when each of them is squared = 136 by

6^2 + 10^2 = 36 + 100 = 136

The hypotenuse is 12

12^2 = 144

The answer is that it is not a right angle triangle having 2 legs and a hypotenuse. That is because both sides are not equal.
