Answer:
24/5
Step-by-step explanation:
The way I think about areas of sectors is a fraction of the pie. You know what percentage of the "pie" (in this case, circle) you want, because they give you the angle of the sector and you know a circle always has 360°. So technically, you're trying to find 48/360 th of the entire area (36). If you're using a calculator, it doesn't matter if you simplify the fraction, but if you're doing it by hand simplifying makes everything a lot easier.
The equation will be:
Area = 24/180 × 36
= 2/15 × 36
= 72/15
= 24/5
I hope this helped! Also, in Khan Academy, when you get an answer wrong/right, you can view their explanation by clicking "hint" or sometimes "see how we did it" shows up.
Answer:
6.2
Step-by-step explanation:
*Cross multiply*
10.3(sin(37)) = x(sin(90)) *Divide by sin(90) to isolate x*
*Solve*
x = 6.19 ≈ 6.2
