Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Directions

  • Draw a circle
  • Dear a chord with a length of 24 inside the circle. You just have to label it as 24
  • Draw a radius that is perpendicular and a bisector through the chord
  • Draw a radius that is from the center of the circle to one end of the chord.
  • Label where the perpendicular radius to the chord intersect. Call it E.
  • You should get something that looks like  the diagram below. The only thing you have to do is put in the point E which is the midpoint of CB.

Givens

AC = 13 inches                   Given

CB = 24 inches                  Given

CE = 12 inches                    Construction and property of a midpoint.

So what we have now is a right triangle (ACE) with the right angle at E.

What we seek is AE

Formula

AC^2 = CE^2 + AE^2

13^2 = 12^2 + AE^2

169 = 144 + AE^2                     Subtract 144 from both sides.

169 - 144 = 144-144 + AE^2     Combine

25 = AE^2                                Take the square root of both sides

√25 = √AE^2

5 = AE

Answer

The 24 inch chord is 5 inches from the center of the circle.

If 1 cm represents 30 km on a map and colorado is shown by a 20cm by 15 cm rectangle on the map, what is the approximate actual
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

20*30km = 600km

15*30km = 450km

600km * 450km = 270000 km^2

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming 1cm --- 30km causes that 2cm --- 60km, 3cm --- 90km, 4cm --- 120km etc. Notice that number of km's is 30 times greater than the number of cm's on a map

using this logic, you calculate both real dimensions of Colorado by multiplying 20*30 = 600 km and 15*30 = 450km

Then we use a formula of an area of a rectangle A=a\cdot b assuming a=600km, \ b=450km and get A=600\cdot 450=270000km^2 which is an actual area of Colorado

Solve 2,401 = 76 – 2x.
Oduvanchick [21]
Subtract 76 on both sides:

2401 - 76 = 76 - 2x - 76 

2325 = -2x

Divide both sides by -2:

-1162.5 = x
