As the tangent is a straight line, the equation of the tangent will be of the form \(y = mx + c\). We can use perpendicular gradients to find the value of \(m\), then use the coordinates of P to find ...
Now use the information you already have about finding the equation of a line and apply it to the dashed lines shown in these triangles. Remember, to find the equation of a line you need a point ...
Math equations can feel like a banal abstraction without images to make sense of the strings of numbers, letters, and Greek symbols. Consider the Pythagorean theorem, an essential relation in geometry ...
