Find the area of a regular octagon with an apothem 9.7 meters long and a side length of 8 meters.

1 answer:

4 0

The area of a regular octagon is:
A = a * P / 2, where a is an apothem and P is a perimeter.
P = 8 * 8 m = 64 m
A = 9.7 m * 64 m / 2
A = 620.8 / 2 m²
A = 310.4 m²
Answer:
The area of a regular octagon is 310.4 m².

Y = 2x -4 <br><br> 2x + 5y = 16

Sphinxa [80]

You can use substitution

We know that y=2x-4

2x+5(2x-4)=16
2x+10x-20=16
12x-20=16
12x=36
x=3

Solve for y
Y=2x-4
Y=2(3)-4
Y=6-4
Y=2

The solution is(3,2)

A kite on a 160-foot string is caught on a pole. When the full length of the string is stretched in a straight line to the groun

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

72°

Step-by-step explanation:

The string, pole, and ground form a right triangle. The hypotenuse of this triangle is 160 feet. The base of the triangle is 50 feet. The angle adjacent to the base can be found with cosine:

cos x = 50 / 160

x = acos(50 / 160)

x ≈ 72°
