What t-word is define in geometry as a straight line that touches a curve but continues on with crossing it?
A tangent line touches a curve or the circumference of a circle at just one point.
A line that intersects a circle at exactly one point?
Such a line is called a tangent line or a tangent to the circle. [Tangent is Latin for touching-- a tangent line touches the circle at just one point. ]
A line which touches the circle at only one point and outside the circle?
Is calleda tangent line. Is called a tangent line
What is a straight line that touches a curve but continues on with crossing it?
A tangent line.
What is a straight line that touches a circle in one place is called?
It is called a tangent.
How do you find the equation of a parabola if you know the equation of the tangent that touches it?
You need more than one tangent to find the equation of a parabola.
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 equation of the tangent line that touches the circle x squared plus y squared -8x -16y -209 equals 0 at the point of 21 and 8?
Circle equation: x^2 +y^2 -8x -16y -209 Completing the squares: (x-4)^2 +(y-8)^2 = 289 Centre of circle: (4, 8) Radius: 17 Slope of radius: 0 Tangent equation line: x = 21 passing through (21, 0)
What is the tangent equation that touches the circle of x squared plus y squared -8x -y plus 5 equals 0 at the point of 1 2 on the Cartesian plane showing work?
Equation of circle: x^2 +y^2 -8x -y +5 = 0Completing the squares: (x-4)^2 +(y-0.5)^2 = 11.25Centre of circle: (4, 0.5)Slope of radius: -1/2Slope of tangent: 2Equation of tangent: y-2 = 2(x-1) => y = 2xNote that the above proves the tangent of a circle is always at right angles to its radius
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
