    It was interesting to see Euclid's Theorem right after your second method that basically shows a proof of it using the circle. I've never thought about it and why it works like that before.

    Rectangle ABCD:
    A = hw
    540 = 15AB
    AB = 540/15 = 36
    First method:
    Triangle ∆OBC:
    OB² + BC² = CO²
    (36-r)² + 15² = r²
    1296 - 72r + r² + 225 = r²
    72r = 1521
    r = 1521/72 = 169/8 cm
    Second method:
    Extend AB to the circumference at E. Let BE = x. Extend CB to the circumference at F. As ∠OBC = 90°, BF = BC = 15, as if a radius of a circle intersects a chord perpendicularly, it bisects that chord.
    For any two intersecting chords of a circle, the products of their lengths on either side of the intersection point are the same. Thus:
    AB•BE = CB•BF
    36x = 15(15) = 225
    x = 225/36 = 25/4
    AE = AB + BE
    2r = 36 + 25/4 = 169/4
    r = (169/4)/2 = 169/8 cm
    Third method:
    Let G be the point where DC intersects with the circumference. Extend CB to F. As ∠OBC = 90°, BF = BC = 15, as if a radius of a circle intersects a chord perpendicularly, it bisects that chord.
    Draw radius OP so that OP intersects GC perpendicularly at H. By the same rule as above, GH = HC, as OP bisects the chord GC. As ∠OHC = ∠HCB = ∠CBO = 90°, ∠BOH must also equal 90°, and OHCB is a rectangle. Therefore GC = 2OB, as OB = HC = GH.
    Draw diameter GF. As G, F, and C, are point on the circumference and ∠GCF is a 90° angle connecting them all, G and F must be opposite ends of a diameter of the circle. Thus GF and O are collinear.
    Triangle ∆GCF:
    GC² + CF² = GF²
    (2(36-r))² + (2(15))² = (2r)²
    4(36-r)² + 4(15)² = 4(r²)
    (36-r)² + 15² = r²
    1296 - 72r + r² + 225 = r²
    72r = 1521
    r = 1521/72 = 169/8 cm

    A = lw
    540 = 15l
    l = 36
    So, the length of rectangle ABCD is 36 cm.
    Draw the radius of ⊙O containing vertex B. Label the point on the circle E. This forms a diameter AE of the circle.
    Extend side CB to another point F on the circle, such that the new segment, CF, is a chord of the circle.
    By the Perpendicular Chord Bisector Theorem, the diameter bisects the chord.
    Because BC = 15 (by the Parallelogram Opposite Sides Theorem), BF = 15 as well. Use the Intersecting Chords Theorem.
    36 * (2r - 36) = 15 * 15
    72r - 1296 = 225
    72r = 1521
    r = 1521/72
    = 169/8
    So, the radius of the circle is 169/8 centimeters (fraction), or 21.125 centimeters (decimal).

    Pythagorean Theorem :
    AB=540/15=36cm
    r²=(36-r)²+15² r²=1296-72r+r²+225 72r=1521 r=21.125cm
    Chords Theorem :
    AB=540/15=36cm
    15*15=36*(2r-36) 225=72r-1296 72r=1521 r=21.125cm

    In case the problem is an MCQ in exam, a quick solution using calculator can be found in 30 seconds:
    1. angle BAC = arc tan (BC/AB) = arc tan (15/36) = 22.62
    2. angle BOC = 2 x angle BAC = 45.24 (exterior angle of triangle)
    3. radius = OC = BC/sin BOC = 15/0.71 = 21.125 = 169/8.

    • @hongningsuen1348
      @hongningsuen1348 2 місяці тому

      A more formal version of this method:
      1. Triangle ABC has sides ratios of 5:12:13.
      For angle BAC, sin (BAC) = 5/13, cos(BAC) = 12/5
      2. Angle BOC = 2 x angle BAC (exterior angle of isosceles triangle AOC)
      Hence Sin (BOC) = 2 sin (BAC) cos (BAC) (double angle formula for sin function)
      = (2)(5/13)(12/13) = 120/169
      3. Radius = OC = BC/sin (BOC) = (15)/(120/169) = 169/8.

    21.125
    Line AB = 540/15 = 36
    Since AO = the radius= r
    then OB = 36- r
    Let's construct a triangle BC0
    BC=DA =15
    OC= r
    Hence, r^2 = (36-r)^2 + 15^2
    r^2 = 1,296 + r^2 -72r + 225
    r^2 = 1521 + r^2 - 72 r
    0 = 1521 - 72r
    72r = 1521
    r = 1521/72
    r = 21.125 Answer

    Let's find the radius:
    .
    ..
    ...
    ....
    .....
    First of all we calculate the length of AB:
    A(ABCD) = AB*AD
    ⇒ AB = A(ABCD)/AD = (540cm²)/(15cm) = 36cm
    Now let AE be the diameter of the circle with B located on AE. According to Thales theorem the triangle ACE is a right triangle, so we can apply the right triangle altitude theorem:
    BC² = AB*BE
    ⇒ BE = BC²/AB = AD²/AB = (15cm)²/(36cm) = (25/4)cm = 6.25cm
    Now we are able to calculate the radius R of the circle:
    R = AE/2 = (AB + BE)/2 = (36cm + 6.25cm)/2 = (42.25cm)/2 = 21.125cm

    @phungpham1725 2 місяці тому +1

    4th approach:
    1/ DC intersects the circle at point F.
    Let DF = x
    By using the tangent theorem:
    DF.DC= sq AD--> x= sq AD/DC= 225/36= 6.25
    If we drop the height FH to the diameter we have AH= x= 6.25
    Notice that the AFCE is a isosceles trapezoid so AH=BE= 6.25
    --> AE= 2r = 36+6.25
    r = 21.125 cm

    After looking at the diagram for a while and doing a few calculations in my head I came up with
    15*15 = 36(2r - 36) as intersecting chords.
    225 = 72r - 1296
    1521 = 72r
    They both divide by 3 so 24r = 507
    Again: 8r = 169
    So r= 169/8
    That is 21 and 1/8 so 21.125
    This shows me that even if something looks slightly complex, it is sometimes possible to work without a calculator

    For some reason I always choose the longest path to the solution, or at least the only one needing a calculator. In this case I found angle BAC from arctan (15/36). From the inscribed angle theorem I knew angle EOC is double that angle, exactly the same as angle BOC. I calculated OC to be 15/(sin(angle BOC)).

  • @hongningsuen1348
    @hongningsuen1348 2 місяці тому

    Point E is redunctant for solution as shown by the following method using trigonometric ratios:
    1. Right-angled triangle ABC has sides ratios of 5:12:13. (15 and 36 given, 39 found by Pythagoras theorem)
    For angle BAC, sin (BAC) = 5/13, cos(BAC) = 12/5
    2. Angle BOC = 2 x angle BAC (exterior angle of isosceles triangle AOC)
    Hence Sin (BOC) = 2 sin (BAC) cos (BAC) (double angle formula for sin function)
    = (2)(5/13)(12/13) = 120/169
    3. Radius = OC = BC/sin (BOC) = (15)/(120/169) = 169/8.

    Let'a use an orthonormal, center P (the center of the rectangle), first axis parallel to (AB). O is the intersection of (AB) and of the mediatrice Delta of [A,C].
    VectorAC(36; 15) is orthogonal to Delta and Delta contains P, the equation of Delta is then 36.x +15.y = 0, or 12.x + 5.y = 0.
    The equation of (AB) is y = -15/2, then we have O(-15/2; 25/8). Then VectorOC(119/8; 15) and R^2 = OC^2 = 14161/64 + 225 = 28561/64, so R = 169/8.

    4th method:
    Tangent-chord theorem:
    L = 540 cm² / 15 cm = 36 cm
    L * x = 15²
    x = 15² / 36 = 225 / 36 = 6.25 cm
    d = L + x = 36 cm + 6.25 cm = 42.25 cm
    r = d / 2 = 42.25 cm / 2 = 21.125 cm

    ABCD is rectangle
    so AB=CD ; AD=BC=15
    AB=CD=540/15=36cm
    Let OB=x
    OA=OC=OE=R
    R+x=AB=36
    so x=36-R
    Connect O to C
    In ∆OBC
    OB^2+BC^2=OC^2
    x^2+15^2=R^2
    R^2-x^2=225
    R^2-(36-R)^2=225
    So R=169/8cm=21.125cm.❤❤❤ Best regards.
