Warning: This might be rough...
First draw it out. Label the angles at the corners of the triangle 60 (definition of equilateral triangles). Now draw a line from the center of the circle to the corner, splitting the corner in half. Label this line R and a corner as 30 degrees. No to find the height of this triangle, you do rsin(30). The base of this triangle is 2rcos(30). Now find the area of this mini triangle (rsin(30)*2rcos(30)/2=r/2*rsqrt(3)/2=r^2sqrt(3)/4). Now multiply this by 3 because you have 3 mini triangles... to get...

Answer:

Each friend got 6 cars each

Step-by-step explanation:

17-5= 12 cars

He gave 12 cars away.

Since there are 2 friends, you divide the cars given away by 2, hence

12/2= 6

Find the values of x and y
julsineya [31]

Answer:

y = 70 degrees

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The side opposite x + 2 is equivalent so they will both be equal to 13.

To get the meaning of x, simply subtract 2 from 13 giving you x = 11.

Y is across from corner C, which is 70 degrees. These angles are equivalent to each other, meaning that angle y is also 70 degrees.

Hope this helps you :)

Vesna [10]
D. f(x+1)=2f(x)

f(x+1)=2(-2 2/3)=-5 1/3
f(x+1)=2(-5 1/3)=-10 2/3
f(x+1)=2(-10 2/3)=-21 1/3
f(x+1)=2(-21 1/3)=-42 2/3
