Answer:<u> 9.42 inches</u>, 3π in terms of pi

Step-by-step explanation:

A full circle is 360 degrees, so if the segment has an arc of 120 degrees, it is 1/3 of a regular circle.

To find the area of a circle, we use the equation A = πr^2. In this case, we will divide the equation by 3 because we are only finding 1/ of a circle. So, our equation will be A  = (πr^2)/3.

Using 3.14 for π:

A  = (πr^2)/3.

A = (π3^2)/3

A = (π9)/3

A = 3π

A = 9.42

Answer:

58\%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find how much extra water Nathan drinks.

60-38=22 extra ounces.

To find the percent increase:

\frac{22}{38} =58\% (to the nearest percent)

Hope this helps :)

The sides of a right triangle measure 6 times the square root of 3, 6 inches, and 12 inches. If an altitude is drawn from the ri
VARVARA [1.3K]

Length of segment of the hypotenuse adjacent to the shorter leg is 5 inches and the length of the altitude is 3 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Let the triangle be ΔABC with right angle at B. The altitude drawn from B intersects the hypotenuse AC at D. So 2 new right angled triangles are formed, ΔADB and ΔCDB.

Step 2: According to a theorem in similarity of triangles, when an altitude is drawn from any angle to the hypotenuse of a right triangle, the 2 newly formed triangles are similar to each other as well as to the bigger right triangle. So ΔABC ~ ΔADB ~ ΔCDB.

Step 3: Identify the corresponding sides and form an equation based on proportion. Let the length of the altitude be x. Considering ΔABC and ΔADB, AB/DB = AC/AB

⇒ 6/x = 12/6

⇒ 6/x = 2

⇒ x = 3 inches

Step 4: To find length of the hypotenuse adjacent to the shorter leg (side AB of 6 inches), consider ΔADB.

⇒ AD^{2} + BD^{2} = AB^{2}

⇒AD^{2} =AB^{2} - BD^{2}

⇒AD^{2} =6^{2} -3^{2}

⇒AD^{2} =36 - 9 = 25

⇒AD = \sqrt{25}

⇒AD = 5 inches
