Answer:

\sf D) \sqrt{77} \: ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

→ Perpendicular (x) = ?

→ Hypotenuse (h) = 9 feet

→ Base (b) = 2 feet

Now by using the Phythagoras theorem,

→ (Hypotenuse)² = (Perpendicular)² + (Base)²

→ (h)² = (x)² + (b)²

→ (9)² = (x)² + (2)²

→ 81 = (x)² + 4

→ (x)² = 81 - 4

→ (x)² = 77

→ [ x = √(77) ]

Thus, length of remaining side is √(77) ft.

  • Hypotenuse=H=9ft
  • Base=B=2ft

Apply Pythagorean theorem

  • P²=H²-B²
  • P²=9²-2²
  • P²=81-4
  • P²=77
  • P=√77

Option D

37 students get at most 67 scores.

The numbers 60-67 represent the lower quartile (lowest 25%). 25% of 60 is 15 not 30. Therefore it is incorrect.

What’s the area of the sector
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the sector  wasn't there, the area would be that of a circle. The formula for a circle = pi * r^2

But the sector is there and so you have to account for it.

Area sector = (60/360) * pi * 11^2

Area sector = 1/6 * pi * 121

1/6 of 121 = 20.17

Area of sector = 20.17 pi square cm
