answer:
5.002 inches
step-by-step explanation:
- find the diameter of the circle
- the diameter is the side length of the square since the sides of it are touching the circle
c = 2πr
- c stands for circumference
- π stands for pi (or 3.14)
- r stands for radius
- plug in the values given to find the diameter
c = 2πr
15.71 = 2(3.14)r
15.71 = 6.28r
r = 2.501 (rounded or estimated)
- now that we have the radius, we can find the diameter by multiplying by 2, since diameter is two times bigger than the radius
diameter = 5.002 (estimated)
- now, that will be the side length because the diameter = the side length
I'm pretty sure the answers are correct because on the question it says for every 8ft is one inch
Answer:
x = 2 sqrt(3)/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions
sin theta = opp / hyp
sin 60 = 1 /x
x sin 60 =1
x = 1 /sin 60
x = 1 / sqrt(3)/2
x = 2 sqrt(3)/3
