Both the red and blue line segments stretch from the center of the circle to a point on the circle. The length of the blue line segment is 5. How long is the
red line segment?
5
Center
O A. 10
O B. 2.5
O c. 5
O D. 7.5

C. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The circle has point in the center from where two line blue and red are stretched to the point on the circle. The blue line is 5 in length and the red line length is not known. The circumference of the circle is equal on all the area around the origin. Therefore the red line must also be 5 in length as of blue line.

answer: the proof is mentioned below.

step-by-step explanation:

since, given:   lines bc = ef

prove:   lines ac > ef

          statements                                           reason

1. bc=ef                                           1. given

2. ac= ab+bc                                 2. because b is the point between the  

                                                            line segment ac

3.   ac > bc                                       3. because if a line segment is equal to

                                                          the sum of two line segments then it is

                                                          always greater then each of these

                                                          individual line segments

4. ac > ef                                         4. by equality property.
