The measure of an inscribed angle is x and the measure of its intercepted arc is y Which equation describes the relationship between x and y class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

C. [tex]y = 2\cdot x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the inscribed angle ([tex]x[/tex]), in angular units, is directly proportional to the measure of the intercepted arc ([tex]y[/tex]), in length units:

[tex]y \propto x[/tex]

[tex]y = k\cdot x[/tex] (1)

Where [tex]k[/tex] is the proportionality ratio, in length units per angular unit.

Hence, correct answer is [tex]y = 2\cdot x[/tex]. (Correct answer: C)
