Answer:

The actual distance between the cities is 211.67 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The map key indicates that 4.5 cm is equivalent to 75 cm.

Now, to find the actual distance between the cities if the cities are 12.7 cm apart on the map.

Let the actual distance be x.

So, we set a proportion to find the actual distance:

4.5:12.7 = 75:x.

<em>Changing into fractions.</em>

\frac{4.5}{12.7} =\frac{75}{x}

<em>By cross multiplication we get:</em>

4.5x=952.5

<em>Dividing both sides by 4.5 we get:</em>

x=211.67

Therefore, the actual distance between the cities is 211.67 cm.

Find the area of the blue shaded region. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

173.01

Step-by-step explanation:

To area of a sector or portion of a circle is found using:

A = \frac{N}{360} \pi r^2

Substitute N = 50 and A = 27.93.

It becomes 27.93 = \frac{50}{360} \pi r^2\\27.93 = 0.139 \pi r^2\\200.94 = \pi r^2

The area of the entire circle is 200.94. The area of the blue part of the circle can be found by subtracting the red section from the entire circle.

200.94 - 27.93 = 173.01

Find the value of x using the diagram below. Round to the nearest whole number. Picture Attached.
VashaNatasha [74]
Both triangles are right triangles. x is the hypotenuse of the upper one. ThePythagorean formula  will give the value of x. One side is known, The other side we will find using the fact that the lower right triangle is isosceles. The hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle has a length of \sqrt{2} times the length of one of the legs. In this case 14. So the hypotenuse of the lower triangle is also the short side of the upper triangle. Using Pythagoras

25^{2} +  (14 \sqrt{2}) ^{2} = x^{2}

625 + 392 =  x^{2}

 1017 =  x^{2}

32 = x
