The probability that the dart lands inside the square but not on the circular dartboard is 22% option first is correct.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favourable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words, the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

We have:

A dartboard consists of a circle inscribed in a square.

The area of the square is 64 square inches.

We know the area of the square:

A = a²

a is the side of the square.

64 = a²

a = 8 inches

As the circle inscribed in a square.

The diameter will be 8 inches

The radius of the circle r = 8/2 = 4 inches

Area of the circle = πr² = π(4)² = 16×3.14 = 50.24 inches

P(dart will land on circular dartboard) = 50.24/64 = 0.785

P(dart will not land on circular dartboard) = 1 - 0.785 = 0.215

or

P(dart will not land on circular dartboard) = 21.5% ≈ 22%

Thus, the probability that the dart lands inside the square but not on the circular dartboard is 22% option first is correct.

If Q is the midpoint of segment PR, PQ = 17 cm, then what is the total length of PR?
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

34 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

PR = PQ + QR

PQ = QR because Q is the mid-point

Since PQ = 17 cm, then QR = 17 cm

so,

PR = 17 + 17

PR = 34 cm

The radius of a circle measures 5 inches A central angle of the circle measuring 12 radians cuts off a sector
blagie [28]

Answer:

  25/4 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a sector of a circle is given by the formula ...

  A = (1/2)r²θ

where r is the radius and θ is the central angle in radians.

For your sector, the area is ...

  A = (1/2)(5 in)²(1/2) = 25/4 in²
