Answer:
The tangent intersects the curve only one point while the chord will intersect the curve at more than one point.
Step-by-step explanation:
A tangent will touch the curve while the chord cuts the curve.
The tangent intersects the curve only one point while the chord will intersect the curve at more than one point.
From the diagram in the attachment line BD is a tangent while line BC is a chord.
-12 + 9y = -57
add 12 to both sides, 9y = -45
divide 9 from both sides to isolate the y
y = -5
7.5
Using the Pythagorean theorem you can determine this answer! Let me know if I’m wrong!
The answer is C. The only choice that is greater than 36.2 is 36.212, which is C.
