If: 3x -2y -26 = 0
Then: y = 1.5x -13
If: x^2 +y^2 -6x +4y = 0
Then: x^3 +(1.5x -13)^2 -6x +4(1.5x -13 = 0
Expanding brackets: x^2 +2.25x^2 -39x +169 -6x +6x -52 = 0
Collecting like terms: 3.25x^2 -39x +117 = 0
Divide all terms by 3.25: x^2 -12x +36 = 0
Factorizing: (x-6)(x-6) = 0 => x = 6 and also x = 6
By substitution point of contact is at: (6, -4)

What is the tangent equation of the circle 2x squared plus 2y squared -8x -5y -1 that touches the point of 1 -1 on the Cartesian plane?
If you mean: 2x^2 +2y^2 -8x -5y -1 = 0 making contact at (1, -1) Then the tangent equation in its general form works out as: 4x+9y+5 = 0
What is the radius equation inside the circle x squared plus y squared -8x plus 4y equals 30 that meets the tangent line y equals x plus 4 on the Cartesian plane showing work?
Circle equation: x^2 +y^2 -8x +4y = 30 Tangent line equation: y = x+4 Centre of circle: (4, -2) Slope of radius: -1 Radius equation: y--2 = -1(x-4) => y = -x+2 Note that this proves that tangent of a circle is always at right angles to its radius

How do you solve secant squared divided by tangent?
In trig, the secant squared divided by the tangent equals the hypotenuse squared divided by the product of the opposite and adjacent sides of the triangle.Details: secant = hypotenuse/adjacent (H/A) and tangent = opposite/adjacent (A/O);Then secant2/tangent = (H2/A2)/(O/A) = H2/A2 x A/O = H2/AO.
What is the equation of the tangent line that touches the circle x squared plus y squared -6x plus 4y equals 0 at the point of 6 -4 on the Cartesian plane?
Equation: x² + y² -6x +4y = 0 Completing the squares: (x-3)² + (y+2)² = 13 Centre of circle: (3, -2) Contact point: (6, -4) Slope of radius: -2/3 Slope of tangent: 3/2 Tangent equation: y - -4 = 3/2(x-6) => 2y - -8 = 3x-18 => 2y = 3x-26 Tangent line equation in its general form: 3x-2y-26 = 0
