Given that the screw is a regular hexagon with side length 6 mm, the area of the screw is 93.5 mm^2

<h3>How can the area of the screw be found?</h3>

The area of an hexagon can be found using the following equation;

A = \mathbf{ \frac{3 \cdot \sqrt{3} }{2}  \times  {a}^{2}}

Where <em>a </em>= The side length

However the side lengths are not equal, and the figure is a composite figure with two triangles and one rectangle;

Base length of the triangles = 12

Height of the triangles = 3

Area of each triangle = 0.5 × 12 × 3 = 18

Width of the rectangle = 12

Height of the rectangle = 6

Area of the rectangle = 12 × 6 = 72

Area of the screw = 18 + 18 + 72 = 108

However taking the screw as a regular hexagon, with side length <em>a </em>= 6, we have;

A =  \frac{3 \cdot \sqrt{3} }{2}  \times  {6 \: mm}^{2} = 93.5 \: mm^2

  • The correct option is <u>D. 93.5 mm^2</u>

Lorico [155]

Answer:

The answer is "numeric".

Step-by-step explanation:

The Dim keyword is used in Visual Basic which is used to establish the dependent variable and other information such as the code that the variable may access the variables, computer utilizes the statement Dim. The dimensions are brief and then used to define variables. The Dim statement is placed just after sub definition only at the start of a VBA module (short for Subroutine).The variable to hold an integer value is seen in the above example.

Write the standard form of the equation of the circle with center (−7,1) that passes through the point (−7,9).
kiruha [24]

Answer:

(x + 7)² + (y - 1)² = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the equation of a circle, (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Plug in the point and center, then solve for r:

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

(-7 + 7)² + (9 - 1)² = r²

0 + 64 = r²

64 = r²

8 = r

Then, plug in the center and r² into the equation:

(x + 7)² + (y - 1)² = 64

So, (x + 7)² + (y - 1)² = 64 is the standard form of the circle's equation
