Find the missing angle measure. then classify the triangle by its angles and by its sides.
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Part a) The measure of the missing angle is 90\°

Part b) The triangle of the figure is a right triangle

Part c) The triangle of the figure is a scalene triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is equal to 180\°

so

Let

x------> the missing angle

we know that

x\°+50\°+40\°=180\°

solve for x

x=180\°-90\°=90\°

The triangle of the figure is a right triangle --------> by its angles

Because the triangle has an angle measure of 90\°

The triangle of the figure is a scalene triangle --------> by its sides

Because the three angles and the three sides measures are different

Find the circumference of the circles below. Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Use 3.14 for Pi.
Lisa [10]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{1.\ C\approx38cm;\ 2.\ C\approx57ft;\ 3.\ C\approx50in.}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a circumference of a circle:

C=2\pi r\\\\r-\text{radius}

1.\\r=6cm\\\\C=2\pi\cdot6=12\pi\\\\\pi\approx3.14\\\\C\approx12\cdot3.14=37.68\approx38(cm)\\\\2.\\r=9ft\\\\C=2\pi\cdot9=18\pi\\\\\pi\approx3.14\\\\C\approx18\cdot3.14=56.52\approx57(ft)\\\\3.\\2r=16in.\to r=8in.\\\\C=2\pi\cdot8=16\pi\\\\\pi\approx3.14\\\\C\approx16\cdot3.14=50.24\approx50(in.)

Complete the steps to demonstrate why you multiply by the reciprocal when dividing fractions. Find 1/4 ÷ 3/8. ..................
Nataliya [291]
<span>To complete the steps to demonstrate why you multiply by the reciprocal when dividing fractions.

To find
\frac{1}{4}\div\frac{3}8}

Step 1:
Rewrite it as
\frac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{3}{8}}.


Step 2:
Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the reciprocal of
\frac{3}{8}.</span><span>

</span><span>\frac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{3}{8}}=\frac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{3}{8}}\times\frac{\frac{8}{3}}{\frac{8}{3}}


Step 3:
Simplify the denominator
\frac{\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{8}{3}}{1}                                                                 

Step 4:
Simplify the fraction
</span><span>\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{8}{3}.

We complete the solution as follows:
</span><span><span>\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{8}{3}=\frac{1\times8}{4\times3}\\ \\=\frac{8}{12}=\frac{4\times2}{4\times3}=\frac{2}{3}</span></span>
