Please help! Area of part of a circle!!!

Mathematics
1 answer:
Helga [31]2 years ago
7 0

The sector (shaded segment + triangle) makes up 1/3 of the circle (which is evident from the fact that the labeled arc measures 120° and a full circle measures 360°). The circle has radius 96 cm, so its total area is π (96 cm)² = 9216π cm². The area of the sector is then 1/3 • 9216π cm² = 3072π cm².

The triangle is isosceles since two of its legs coincide with the radius of the circle, and the angle between these sides measures 120°, same as the arc it subtends. If b is the length of the third side in the triangle, then by the law of cosines

b² = 2 • (96 cm)² - 2 (96 cm)² cos(120°)   ⇒   b = 96√3 cm

Call b the base of this triangle.

The vertex angle is 120°, so the other two angles have measure θ such that

120° + 2θ = 180°

since the interior angles of any triangle sum to 180°. Solve for θ :

2θ = 60°

θ = 30°

Draw an altitude for the triangle that connects the vertex to the base. This cuts the triangle into two smaller right triangles. Let h be the height of all these triangles. Using some trig, we find

tan(30°) = h / (b/2)   ⇒   h = 48 cm

Then the area of the triangle is

1/2 bh = 1/2 • (96√3 cm) • (48 cm) = 2304√3 cm²

and the area of the shaded segment is the difference between the area of the sector and the area of the triangle:

3072π cm² - 2304√3 cm² ≈ 5660.3 cm²

CAN SOMEONE JUST ANSWER THIS QUESTION
kramer

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 numbers of less than 4 (1, 2 and 3) and there are 2 multiples of 9 (9 and 18). So there are 5 favourable outcomes and 25 possible outcomes. So you put 5/25 and cancel down, which makes 1/5. I hope this helps!

Is the number prime 5 and cmppsite or just one?
Serga [27]

If I understand what you are asking, the number 5 is prime. The definition for a prime number is a number that has no factors other than itself and one. The prime factorization of 5 is 5 * 1. Since 5's factors are only itself and 1, that means that it is prime. The definition of a composite number is a number that has at least one divisor other than one and itself. This means that a number cannot be both prime and composite.

Clara brought 24 donuts for the office. If 6 of them were chocolate, what percent of the donuts were chocolate
mafiozo [28]
To find the percent, you have to divide 24/6 
24/6 = 0.25
Now you convert 0.25 to a percent. 
So move the decimal point 2 places to the right. 
= 25 %
