I literally have ZERO idea

  1. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
  2. Once someone helps you, say thank you and close the thread with:
+close
  1. Feel free to nominate the person for helper of the week in #helper-nominations
  2. Do not ping the mods, unless someone is breaking the rules.
  3. If you're happy with the help you got here, and the server overall, you can contribute financially as well:

Yes I know the names of the theorems but not familliar withmost

#

What theorem can I use for each ques

reef dune
#

Which of them look similar to part 1?

warm nova
reef dune
#

Yes thats a good one for half of the problem

#

What else

warm nova
#

Angles at the same segment

reef dune
#

Yes

#

Then thats all you need to solve the whole problem

warm nova
#

So X is 50°??

reef dune
#

Ye

warm nova
#

And y is 25°?

reef dune
#

Indeed

warm nova
#

What about 2

#

What is 2 asking cryaboutit

reef dune
#

Well whats the relaionship of the radius of circle O to circle A

#

Do you see how the diameter of O is the radius of A

warm nova
#

Oh ye

#

The line B

reef dune
#

So you automatically know circle A is exactly twice as big as circle O right

warm nova
#

Yes

reef dune
#

And then a little trick you can pull

#

Is you can draw two similar triangles

warm nova
#

Do I have to draw the triangles

reef dune
#

I mean its involved in the proof I guess

#

You can also do something along the lines of

#

Using the two exactly the same green triangles

#

You know they ahve the same angles by the angles in a semicircle theorem

#

These problems are all about using what you have and trying to come up with some silly way to morph your problem into something that you can use your tools to solve

warm nova
#

OH SO BC AND CD ARE CONGRUENT

reef dune
#

Indeed they are

warm nova
#

So what do I write in it

reef dune
#

I would apply the angles in a semicircle theorem and draw out those triangles

#

Idk how formal your teacher wants the proofs to be and honestly its been like 5 or 6 years since I took geometry so Im not sure how much I could help with that part

#

But the whole process of how to do it is there

warm nova
reef dune
#

Ye basically

warm nova

Okay thanks omg poggers poggers poggers
