equation of tangent to a circle

[spring oriole]

i have the euation of the line but i have no lcue how to implemnt it

<@&791435371564892232>

ive got y = -1/3x + 10

[wet owl]

Have u drawn a diagram?

Hi

[paper kite]

Integrate it into equation of cricket

[wet owl]

If you draw a diagram u should get it pretty quickly

[spring oriole]

nH

do i draw a circle?

[paper kite]

Does anyone know Jamie Johnson btw

[pallid path]

yh

[paper kite]

Just a brief diagram

With circle

[spring oriole]

ok

[paper kite]

Roughy ply drawn

[wet owl]

Go somewhere else to talk about that..

Dm me

Circle center 0,0 radius √90 (approximately like 9.5) and then draw the line l

[spring oriole]

what

[wet owl]

Mark points P and Q

[spring oriole]

could u join vc and i do it on paint?

you can use vc text

just so i can show what im doung

this is what i have so far

pretty abysmal

[spring oriole]

where is q

[wet owl]

Where the line l crosses the x axis ...

Like this

Angle OPQ is a right angle cuz of the circle theorem the the radius meets the tangent at 90⁰

[spring oriole]

ohhh

ok

[wet owl]

Then its just 1/2 bh

[spring oriole]

how did you get Q

did you do root 90

[wet owl]

Its just the x intercept

So the y co-ordinate is 0

[spring oriole]

i got -30

[wet owl]

And you have the equation of line l as y=-1/3x +10

0 = -1/3x + 10
1/3x = 10
x = 30

[spring oriole]

ohhh

i messed up

did you get 315

[wet owl]

The base is length 30
The height is length 9

1/2 x 30 x 9 = 135

[spring oriole]

ohhhh

i see know

i did 21 x 30

thanks man
