Mathematics
1 answer:
Inessa [10]1 year ago
3 0

Answer:

sometimes

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways that dilation is used in real life. Here are several:

In graphic design. I actually do some graphic design, and I use dilation a lot. It is common to dilate photos to fit the space that you want it to fit.

In police work and crime investigation. Detectives and police dilate photos to see smaller details and evidence.

In architecture. It is normal for architects to make a prototype of their design or building. In order to make the building true to the prototype, they must dilate the scale and measurements.

In the doctor's office. Dilation is used in eye exams so that the eye doctor can view the patient's eye better. After a while it will slowly reduce in size and return back to normal.

Find the exact circumference, in terms of , of a circle with the given radius.
Grace [21]
By definition, when we say circumference, this is the measure or the distance around the circle. To find the circumference of a circle we use this formula. C = π x the diameter of the circle or C = 2πr . 
Given that the radius is x/2 miles, let us plug in the values.
So C = 2(3.14)(x/2)
C = 6.28 (x/2)
C= 6.28x/2
C = 3.14x
So the circumference of the given circle above would be 3.14x miles. Hope this answer helps.

Determine the value of “m” in the parallelogram below.
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

m = 170

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles are supplementary so they add to 180 degrees

70 + m-60 = 180

Combine like terms

10 + m = 180

Subtract 10 from each side

10-10 +m = 180-10

m = 170
