Here is a circle, centre 0, and the tangent to the circle at the point (-7, 24) on the circle.
Find an equation of the tangent at the point P.
Give your answer in the form y = ax + b where a and b are both
fractions with denominator 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius drawn to the tangent at the point of tangency is perpendicular to the tangent.

The radius has endpoints (0, 0) and (-7, 24). The slope of the line containing the radius is

The slope of the tangent is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the radius.

The tangent contains point (-7, 24).

y = mx + b

The equation of the tangent is

false

step-by-step explanation:

the reason i say this is because for a certain length of sides you can pick any two and the length is wither equal or greater than the third side and in this case it's not.

3 + 5 = 8

8 is smaller than 9 which is the third side.

hope this : )
