  not tangent

Step-by-step explanation:

AB will be tangent to circle O if AB ⊥ BO. That can be tested by checking to see if AB, BO, and AO satisfy the Pythagorean theorem.

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 3.75 and 8 will be ...

  hypotenuse = √(3.75² +8²) = √78.0625 ≈ 8.835

The length of AO is somewhat greater than that, so AB cannot be a tangent to the circle.

The angle ABO is obtuse.

i can answer this question sweetie!

step-by-step explanation:

1/3

step-by-step explanation:

to find this, you can divide 12 by 4 which is 3 or you can multiply 4 until you reach 12 (4x3=12). both should give you 3, meaning theres three times less bananas than there are oranges.
