Answer:

Length = 64 cm , width =16 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Perimeter = 160

Let width = x

Length = 4x

Hence perimeter =2 (length) +2 ( width)

160 = 2(4x)+2(x)

160 = 8x + 2x

160 = 10x

160/10 =x

16 = x

Hence width = 16 cm

Put the value of x in 4x

Length= 4(16)

Length =64 cm

Hence length = 64 cm, width =16 cm

Answer:

length is 64 and width is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

all the sides added up would be 10x becuase the lenght is 4 times the width so it would be 4x+x+4x+x which would be 10x

so do 160/10x so x =16

malfutka [58]

Step-by-step explanation:

always write what you know

circumference

U = 2 x pi x r

r = d/2

U = 39.25

rearrange and solve for r

U / (2 x pi) = r

solve for diameter

2r = d

1)a chord of length 18cm midway the radius of a circle. calculate the radius of the circle correct to 1d.p. 2)if two parallel ch
kykrilka [37]
Part 1:

Given that the length of the chord is 18 cm and the chord is midway the radius of the circle. 

Thus, half the angle formed by the chord at the centre of the circle is given by:

\cos\theta=\frac{\left( \frac{1}{2} r\right)}{r}= \frac{1}{2}  \\  \\ \Rightarrow\theta=\cos^{-1}\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)=60^o

Now, 

\sin60^o= \frac{9}{r}  \\  \\ \Rightarrow r= \frac{9}{\sin60^o} =10.392

Therefore, the radius of the circle is 10.4 cm to 1 d.p.


Part 2I:

Given that the radius of the circle is 10 cm and the length of chord AB is 8 cm. Thus, half the length of the chord is 4cm. Let the distance of the mid-point O to /AB/ be x and half the angle formed by the chord at the centre of the circle be θ, then

\sin\theta= \frac{4}{10} = \frac{2}{5} \\ \\ \theta=\sin^{-1}\left( \frac{2}{5} \right)=23.6^o

Now, 

\cos23.6^o= \frac{x}{10} \\ \\ \Rightarrow x=10\cos23.6^o=9.165\approx9.2cm


Part 2II:

Given that the radius of the circle is 10cm and the angle distended is 80 degrees. Let half the length of chord CD be y, then:

\sin40^o= \frac{y}{10}  \\  \\  \\ \Rightarrow y=10\sin40^o=6.428

Thus, the length of chord CD = 2(6.428) = 12.856 which is approximately 12.9 cm.
