35.
从周长为 个单位的圆外一点 作圆的切线;又从 作一条割线,将圆分成长度分别为 和 的两段不等弧。已知切线长 是 与 的比例中项。若 和 都是整数,则 可能取值的个数为:
From point outside a circle, with a circumference of units, a tangent is drawn. Also from a secant is drawn dividing the circle into unequal arcs with lengths and It is found that the length of the tangent, is the mean proportional between and If and are integers, then may have the following number of values:
零个
zero
一个
one
两个
two
三个
three
无穷多个
infinitely many
小提示:
使用 和
Use and
大提示:
检验整数值 ,并排除两弧相等的情况
Test the integer values excluding equal arcs
解答:
弧长满足 ,而比例中项条件给出 当 取从 到 的整数时,不计对称重复,可能的乘积为 、、、 和 。最后一个来自相等的两弧 ,应排除。其余完全平方数给出 和 ,共两个值。
因此,正确答案是 C。
The arc lengths satisfy while the mean-proportional condition gives For integral from through the possible products, up to symmetry, are and The last comes from equal arcs and is excluded. The remaining squares give and two values.
Thus, the correct answer is C.
