the area of the minor segment is 0. 29 cm^2

<h3>How to determine the area</h3>

From the information given, we have the following parameters;

radius, r = 5cm
The angle is 30 degrees
AB subtends the angle

It is important to note the formula for area of a sector is given as;

Area = πr² + θ/360° - 1/ 2 r² sin θ

The value for π = 3.142

θ = 30°

Now, let's substitute the values

Area = 3. 142 × 5² × 30/ 360 - 1/ 2 × 5² × sin 30

Find the difference

Area = 3. 142 × 25 × 1/ 12 - 1/ 2 × 25 × 1/2

Multiply through

Area = 6. 54 - 6. 25

Area = 0. 29 cm^2

The area of the minor segment is given as 0. 29 cm^2

Thus, the area of the minor segment is 0. 29 cm^2

Liev is assembling a coffee table. The diagram below is from the instruction manual and shows the table after the first two legs

elixir [45]

Answer:

The support is 41 inches long.

Step-by-step explanation:

There's two ways we can do this: one with the diagonal formula and one without.

Since we know that Point C is halfway down leg A and that the table legs are 18 inches tall, Point C is 9 inches down leg A. The support, from Point C to Point D, will form a diagonal, the length of which we need to find. We know from the diagram that the width of the table is 24 inches and that its length is 32 inches. We have a height, length, and width for this problem, so let's imagine a rectangular prism, which has all three of those things, instead of a table. The formula for finding a rectangular prism's diagonal is $d = \sqrt{l^{2} + w^{2} + h^{2} }$ . Let's put in those numbers:

$d = \sqrt{32^{2} + 24^{2} + 9^{2} } = 41$

Therefore, the support is 41 inches long.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another way you can do this is to use the Pythagorean Theorem twice: once to find the diagonal of the tabletop and another time for the support.

$24^{2} + 32^{2} = c^{2} \\576 + 1024 = c^2\\1600 = c^2\\\sqrt{1600} = \sqrt{c^2}\\ 40 = c$

Now that we know the corner-to-corner distance for the tabletop, we'll use that and the 9 inch distance for Point C to find the distance between C and D:

$9^{2} + 40^{2} = c^{2}\\ 81 + 1600 = c^2\\1681 = c^2\\\\sqrt{1681} = \sqrt{c^2} \\41 = c$
