Answer:
The Answer is approximately: 20.22
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance formula is:
d = Sqrt ((x - x1)^2 + (y - y1)2)
The points are (5, -14), (-15, -17)
d = Sqrt ((5 - (-15))^2 + (-14 - (-17))^2)
d = Sqrt ((5 + 15)^2 + (-14 + 17)^2)
d = Sqrt (20^2 + 3^2)
d = Sqrt (400 + 9)
d = Sqrt (409) = 20.22
Your octagon has a central angle of 360 deg. Since you're speaking of an octagon, which implies that the octagon is made up of eight triangles, divide 360 deg by 8 to obtain the measure of each minor arc formed.
Answer:
A town with 600 people need 10 firefighters
A town with 1500 people will need 1500 x 10/600 = 1500/60
= 25 firefighters
Hope this helps!
42 because x is equal to its corresponding side
