Two figures are known as similar figures if there the corresponding angles are equal and the corresponding sider is in ratio. The length of the smaller chord AB is 4 cm.

<h3>What are Similar Figures?</h3>

Two figures are known as similar figures if there the corresponding angles are equal and the corresponding sider is in ratio. It is denoted by the symbol "~".

The diagram for the given condition can be drawn as shown below. Therefore, the measure of the smaller chord AB can be found as shown below.

The two triangles, ΔOPQ and ΔOAB are similar. Therefore, for similar triangles, we can write,

\dfrac{PQ}{AB} = \dfrac{OQ}{OB}=\dfrac{PO}{AO}

Now, we can write further,

\dfrac{13}{AB} = \dfrac{7}{4}\\

AB = 7.43 cm

Hence, the length of the smaller chord AB is 4 cm.

Find the area of a regular pentagon with the apothem of 24.3 cm and a side length of 35.3
steposvetlana [31]

Answer: A=2144\ cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise you need  to use the following formula for calculate the area of regular polygon:

A=\frac{s^2n}{4tan(\frac{180}{n})}

Where is "s" the length of any side, "n" is the number of sides.

Int this case you know that it is regular pentagon, which means that it has five sides. Then you can identify that the values of "n" and "s":

s=35.3cm\\n=5

 Therefore, substituitng values into the formula, you get that the area f the pentagon is:

A=\frac{(35.3cm)^2(5)}{4tan(\frac{180}{5})}\\\\A=2144\ cm^2

15 less than quadruple a number w​
vichka [17]

Answer:

4w-15

Step-by-step explanation:

For expressions that have "more than/less than" , that number goes AFTER the "whatever a number" statement because that's just how they explain it. I don't remember the exact reason why, but that is how my professor made me remember it, and yes, the order WILL affect the expression since that's a specific topic and I suppose you're being tested on how to make algebraic expressions based on descriptions.
