Circle A has a diameter of 8 inches, a circumference of 25.12 inches, and an area of 50.24 square inches. The diameter of circle

B is 3 inches, the circumference is 9.42 inches, and the area is 7.065 square inches.
Part A: Using the formula for circumference, solve for the value of pi for each circle.
Part B: Use the formula for area and solve for the value of pi for each circle.

Part C: What observation can you make about the value of pi for circles A and B?

This is the formula for circumference:
C =πd

Substituting the values from circle A, we get this:
25.12 = 8π
π = \frac{25.12}{8}
π = 3.14
 
Using the values from circle B, we get this:
9.42 = 3π
π = \frac{9.42}{3}
π = 3.14

The formula for area is:
A =πr^{2}

Using the values from circle A, we get this (also using r =  \frac{d}{2}):
50.24 = π *  (\frac{8}{2})^{2}
50.24 = π * (4)^{2}
50.24 = 16π
π = \frac{50.24}{16}
π = 3.14

Using the values from circle B, we get this:
7.065 = π *  (\frac{3}{2})^{2}
7.065 = π * \frac{9}{4}
7.065 = \frac{9}{4}π
π = \frac{7.064}{\frac{9}{4}}
π = 3.14

The observation is that π = 3.14, although in reality this is only an approximation to 3 significant figures, since π is a transcendental number.

Please help find the measurement of exterior angle MBI
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The measure of an exterior angle is found by the following formula: Aˆ0B=^AB-^CD2. An interior angle has its vertex at the intersection of two lines that intersect inside a circle. The sides of the angle lie on the intersecting lines. You can find a measure of an exterior angle of a regular polygon with  

N  sides.  It is equal to   360 o N .

Step-by-step explanation:  

Angles of a general polygon (exterior and interior) with more than 3 sides are not defined by the lengths of its sides.  

However, we can calculate the sum of all interior or exterior angles of any convex polygon. It equals to  360 o .

It can be proven geometrically since each exterior angle describes a rotation by some angle and a sum of all exterior angles describes a rotation by full angle of  

360 o . So, if all exterior angles are equal, like in a regular polygon, each one equals to  360 o N .

It can also be defined with some algebraic calculations based on the fact that a sum of all interior angles is  ( N − 2 ) ⋅ 180 o .  

Dividing the above by  N

we will obtain a value of an interior angle:  ( N − 2 ) ⋅ 180o N .  

Therefore, exterior angle of a regular polygon is  180 o − ( N − 2 ) ⋅ 180 o N = 360 o N

Helpppppppppppppppppppp
erma4kov [3.2K]
Answer: Choice A) 66 degrees

========================================================

Minor arc AB (marked in red in the attached diagram) is 45 degrees
Minor arc BE (marked in blue in the same diagram) is 87 degrees

Add the two arcs: 45+87 = 132

Then cut this value in half to get the inscribed angle ADE
132/2 = 66
We cut it in half due to the inscribed angle theorem

Notice how angle ADE cuts off arc ABE (which is composed of minor arc AB and and minor arc BE)
