How do I figure out area?.

Answers

Answer 1

We can figure out area of any polygon we majorly follow the two steps first we divide any polygon into the shape of any known geometrical figures or in general integrate it.

What is area ?

A two-dimensional figure, form, or planar lamina's area is a measure of how much space it takes up in the plane. The area is simply the amount of cloth or other material with the specified thickness needed to build a model of the shape or the quantity of paint required to cover the shape's surface in a single layer, or "coat," of paint. It is the two-dimensional representation of a curve's length or a solid's volume, where length is a one-dimensional concept and volume is a closely related three-dimensional term.

There are a tonne of 2-D shapes all around us, including circles, triangles, squares, rectangles, parallelograms, and trapezoids. You are able to draw.

To figure out area of any polygon we follow the following two ways:

Divide the shape into triangles and sum up the areas. This technique is used in polygonsBy finding an equation of the shape or a part of it and then integrate followed by summing up the areas of the parts.

Considering the parallel and triangle sum properties and the isosceles triangle properties the only correct part option is 2

How to interpret the figures

Option 1

The angle 52 degrees is base angle of isosceles triangle therefore say angle at the third angle is x such that

x + 52 + 52 = 180 (triangle sum property)

x + 104 = 180

x = 76

The figure shows that the base angle of the triangle at the base is equal to 76 too

32 + 2x = 180 (triangle sum property for isosceles triangle)

x = 74

The two angles 74 and 76 are not equal - wrong option

Option 2

x + 2 * 76  = 180  (triangle sum property for isosceles triangle)

x = 28

The figure shows that the base angle of the triangle at the base is equal to 28

124 + 2x = 180 (triangle sum property for isosceles triangle)

x = 28

The two angles 28 and 28 are equal  hence a right option

C-120ft^2
D-1,078.5ft^2

Pls help

Answers

Answer:

  D  1,078.5 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the area of a figure composed of a rectangle 100 ft long and 10 ft wide with semicircles of diameter 10 ft at each end.

Rectangle Area

The area of the rectangle is ...

  A = LW

  A = (100 ft)(10 ft) = 1000 ft²

Circle Area

The two half-circles have the area of a whole circle with radius 5 ft.

  A = πr²

  A = π(5 ft)² = 25π ft² ≈ 78.5 ft²

Total Area

The area of the figure is the sum of the areas of its parts:

  total area = rectangle area + circle area

  total area = 1000 ft² +78.5 ft² = 1078.5 ft²

The total area of the figure is about 1078.5 ft².

Question 1 (1 point) Which pair of equations represents lines that are perpendicular Y=2x+8 y = 2x + 2 y = 1/2x +4 y = -2x-3 y 1/2x + 3 y = 2x-4​

Answers

Only y = - 2x - 3...(iv) and y = (1/2)x...(v) are perpendicular to each other as the negative reciprocal of - 2 is 1/2.

What are lines and their slopes?

We know lines have various types of equations, the general type is

Ax + By + c = 0, and the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + b.

Where slope = m and b = y-intercept.

the slope is the rate of change of the y-axis with respect to the x-axis and the y-intercept is the (0,b) where the line intersects the y-axis at x = 0.

We know lines that are perpendicular to each other have a slope that is negative reciprocal of each other.

The given lines are,

y = 2x + 8...(i)

y = 2x...(ii)

2y = (1/2)x + 4.

y = (1/4)x + 2...(iii)

y = - 2x - 3...(iv).

y = (1/2)x...(v)

3y = 2x - 4.

y = (2/3)x - 4/3...(vi)

So, only y = - 2x - 3...(iv) and y = (1/2)x...(v) are perpendicular to each other as the negative reciprocal of - 2 is 1/2.

an unbiased coin is tossed four times. what is the probability that coin lands heads up at least once? (round your answer to three decimal places.)

Answers

The probability of getting at least one head is 15/16.

What is probability?

The ratio of positive outcomes to all possible outcomes of an event is known as the probability.

Formula for probability = favourable outcomes/ total outcomes

Main body:

if 4 coins are tossed , total no. of outcomes = 2⁴ = 16

In a toss there are 2 outcomes T or H

so, Probability of getting Head = 1/2

The probability of getting at least 1 head = 1- probability of getting no heads

⇒1 - Probability of getting tail in 4 tosses

⇒ 1 - (1/2)⁴

⇒ 1 - 1/16

Answers

The correct value of x = 23.

Each interior angle of an n-sided regular polygon is given by 180 (n-2)/n degrees.

Given that:

n = 9

Therefore, each interior angle=180 x (9-2)/9 degrees

Each interior angle = 180 x 7/9

Each interior angle = 140°

Each internal angle of a regular polygon having 9 sides is 140°.

Also, given that:

A 9-sided regular polygon with one angle equals 7x-21.

For the polygon to be a 9-sided regular polygon, the angles must equal 140°.

Checking the value of x from the given option which one satisfies the value of interior angle = 140°.

Option 1, x= 17

=> 7 x 17 - 21 = 98° which is wrong.

Option 2, x= 23

=> 7 x 23 - 21 = 161-21 = 140° which is correct.

Option 3, x= 29

=> 7 x  29 - 21 = 203-21 = 182° which is wrong.

Option 4, x= 140

=> 7 x 140 - 21 = 980- 21 = 959° which is wrong.

Only, the value of x = 23 satisfies the value of a 9-sided regular polygon with one angle equal to 7x-21.

The sum of 8 and a certain number is equal
to the product of the number and 3. Find
the number.

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Create an equation. If we let the number be x, we get x+8=3x

2.) Solve. If you move x to the other side, we get 2x=8. Finally, by dividing by 2 on each side, we get x=4. Therefore, the number is 4.

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

create an equation thus 8+x =3x

8+X=3x

collect like terms

8=3x-x

8=2x

divide both sides by 2

8/2=2x/2

X=4

Lupita ride a taxi that charge a flate rate of $6. 75 plu $3. 20 per mile. If the taxi charge lupita $40. 03 in total for her trip , how many mile i her ride ?

Answers

Based on the charged amount, Lupita drove 8.76 miles.

Let us assume the number of miles rode bh Lupita be x. Forming the equation now -

Total charge = flat rate + cost per mile × number of miles

Keep the values in above mentioned equation to find the value of x

40.03 = 6.75 + 3.20×x

Rewriting the equation with respect to x

3.20x = 40.03 - 6.75

3.20x = 33.28

Shifting 3.20 to Right Hand Side of the equation

x = 33.28 ÷ 3.20

Performing division on Right Hand Side of the equation

x = 8.76 miles

Thus, Lupita drove 8.76 miles.
