Find all solutions to the equation $x^2 - 8x = -16$.

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 8x = -16

Add 16 to both sides.

x^2  8x + 16 = 0

This may be the square of a binomial.

x^2 is the square of x

16 is the square of 4 and -4.

Let's check the middle term:

2ab = 2(x)(-4) = -8x

Yes, it is the square of a binomial.

x^2 - 8x + 16 = 0

(x - 4)^2 = 0

x - 4 = 0 or x - 4 = 0

x = 4 or x = 4

x = 4

answer: option a.

step-by-step explanation:

you know that the quadrilateral opqr ( a four sided figure) is inscribed in circle. this means that all its vertices are on the circle.

then, by definition, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary, this means that the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

you can observe in the figure that the angles ∠opq   and the angle ∠orq   are opposite, therefore:

then, can be used to d to calculate the measure of ∠opq
