When any shape is inscribed in a circle, it means that the shape is within the circle but all of the corners are touching the circle. So this could just look like a square within a circle with the corners of the square touching the circle but not going outside of the borders of the circle. Repeat this process with the other shapes. The central angle used to locate the vertices is found by taking the number of sides on the shape and divide it by 360 (the angle of a circle). So for a square with 4 sides, you would take 360/4 and get 90 degrees. This means that each angle within the square is 90 degrees. That 90 degrees is the interior angle of the polygon (for a square specifically). Then what you do is look at the circle and draw a dot at the center of it. You can use a protractor for this part if you want but you would find the central angle by picking a point on the circle and drawing a line to the center dot, then you rotate however many degrees you found in the interior angle of the polygon and you would draw a new line from the center of the circle to that point. You will continue this process until you have gone back to your starting point on the circle. The amount of times it takes you to repeat the process should be the amount of sides the polygon has that you are trying. Interior angle and central angle should be the same for the individual shapes but it would be different for different shapes like a square and an octagon because there are a different amount of sides.
The triangles are similar by the SSS (side-side-side) similarity theorem because the sides of the two triangles are in proportion (5/15 = 3/9 = 4/12)
Hope this helps =)
Answer:
r=20%
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The simple interest formula is equal to
where
A is the Final Investment Value
P is the Principal amount of money to be invested
r is the rate of interest
t is Number of Time Periods
in this problem we have
substitute in the formula above
solve for r
Answer:
t = -14

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
-98 = 7t
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>t</u></em>
- Divide 7 on both sides: -14 = t
- Rewrite: t = -14
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in t into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>t</em>: -98 = 7(-14)
- Multiply: -98 = -98
Here we see that -98 is equal to -98.
∴ t = -14 is the solution to the equation.
The length of the side of the small triangle is 4...the side length of the large triangle is 9 (5+4), not 5. It should be correctly written as 4/6 = 9/x
