So we are trying to find this red line's length.

We can either find it directly, or use the blue line firs, and then use it as a leg for the green triangle.

So the blue leg is a hypotenuse for two of the edges. So:

blue^2 = leg^2 + leg^2 from the Pythagorean Theorem
OR
blue =  \sqrt{leg^2 + leg^2}

Which works out to:

blue =  \sqrt{10^2 + 10^2} =  \sqrt{100+100} = \sqrt{200} =  \sqrt{(100)(2)}=10 \sqrt{2}

So now that we have that, using the Pythagorean Theorem again gives:

red =  \sqrt{blue^2 + 10^2} =  \sqrt{(10 \sqrt{2})^2+10^2}= \sqrt{200+100}= \sqrt{300}
\sqrt{300}= \sqrt{100*3}=10 \sqrt{3}

So the length of the red line is found that way.

But wait!  There's more!

As it turns out, the red line can be found with an easier way that works with cubes and boxes (cuboids). It's really easy:

a^2 + b^2+c^2=d^2

Where a, b, and c are all 10m, and d is the red line. This greatly reduces the math:

d =  \sqrt{10^2+10^2+10^2} = \sqrt{100+100+100} =  \sqrt{300}

which gives the same answer as above, which you can see.

Short Answer: 150

Remark
You have to use two facts.
1. The central angle = 2 * the angle at B
2. The central angle = the arc angle.

Given
angle at B = 75 degrees.

Calculate the central angle
Central angle = 2 * angle at B
Central angle = 2 * 75
Central angle = 150

Conclusion
The arc angle = Central angle
The arc angle = 150 degrees.

75 = 4(2)^x
Valentin [98]

Answer:

4.229

Step-by-step explanation:

75 = 4(2)^x

75/4 = 2^x

Apply ln both sides

ln(75/4) = ln(2^x)

ln(75/4) = x ln(2)

x = ln(75/4) ÷ ln(2)

x = 4.22881869

1/3 times 3/4 times 1/3 as a fraction so basically what is 0.08333333333 as a fraction
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

mark me brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

To write 0.08333333333 as a fraction you have to write 0.08333333333 as numerator and put 1 as the denominator. Now you multiply numerator and denominator by 10 as long as you get in numerator the whole number.

0.08333333333 = 0.08333333333/1 = 0.8333333333/10 = 8.333333333/100 = 83.33333333/1000 = 833.3333333/10000 = 8333.333333/100000 = 83333.33333/1000000 = 833333.3333/10000000 = 8333333.333/100000000 = 83333333.33/1000000000 = 833333333.3/10000000000 = 8333333333/100000000000

And finally we have:

0.08333333333 as a fraction equals 8333333333/100000000000
