Answer:

15pi

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming the rounded shapes are semi-circles, we can determine each of their perimeters by the known formula for a full-circle, and divide by 2.

the perimeter of a circle with radius r, is 2×pi×r, hence, a semi-circle, is pi×r.

now we need to find r.

for the given side-length, we simply divide by 2, and we get 2.5 and 6.

for the missinf side-length, we use the Pythagorean formula - a²+b²=c², where a=5 and b=12, we get c=13. hence the third radius is 6.5.

now, the total perimeter will be:

2.5pi+6pi+6.5pi=15pi

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No of desks along length of the rectangle = 7 as it is 7 rows wide.

No of desks along breadth of the rectangle = 7 as it is 5 rows long.

Total number of students is product of these two numbers.

So number of students = 35.

But three desks are empty.

Total students = 35- 3

= 32.

Answer:

a. 0.588

b. 0.0722

c. 4.576 sqft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b and h denote the base and height as indicated in the diagram. By pythagoras theorem, $h^2 + b^2 = 16^2 = 256 \dotsc\;(1)$ because it is a right angle triangle.

It is given that $\frac{db}{dt} = 1$

Now differentiate (1) with respect to t (time) :

$\displaystyle{2h\frac{dh}{dt} + 2b\frac{db}{dt} = 0 \implies \frac{dh}{dt} = -\frac{b}{h} \frac{db}{dt}}$

$\displaystyle{=-\frac{b}{\sqrt{256 - b^2}} \frac{db}{dt} = -\frac{8}{13.856} \times 1 = -0.588}$

The minus sign indicates that the value of h is actually decreasing. The required answer is 0.588.

b. From the diagram, infer that $16 \sin{\theta} = b$ . When b = 8, then $\theta = \arcsin{0.5} = \ang{30}$ .

Differentiate the above equation w.r.t t

$\displaystyle{16 \cos{\theta} \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{db}{dt} \implies \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{16 \cos{\theta}} = \frac{1}{13.856} = \mathbf{0.0722}}$
