Answer:

Answer:

Given : BRDG is a kite that is inscribed in a circle,

With BR = RD and BG = DG

To prove : RG is a diameter

Proof:

Since, RG is the major diagonal of the kite BRDG,

By the property of kite,

∠ RBG = ∠ RDG

Also, BRDG is a cyclic quadrilateral,

Therefore, By the property of cyclic quadrilateral,

∠ RBG + ∠ RDG = 180°

⇒ ∠ RBG + ∠ RBG = 180°

⇒ 2∠ RBG = 180°

⇒ ∠ RBG = 90°

⇒ ∠ RDG = 90°

Since, Angle subtended by a diameter or semicircle on any point of circle is right angle.

RG is the diameter of the circle.

Hence, proved.

The perimeter of a rectangular garden is 338
feet. If the length of the garden is
96
feet, what is its width?

Answers

Since the length is 96 ft., there are two sides of that length, so 96x2=192. Now subtract that from 338. 338-192=146. Divide that by two, since there are still two sides left. 146/2=73. The width is 73 ft.
