Answer:
Total number of 1 2/3 feet long pieces that will be cut=8 pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be expressed as;
Total length of the board=length per piece×number of pieces
where;
Total length of board=14 1/4 feet
Length per piece=1 2/3 feet
Number of pieces=n
Replacing;
14 1/4=1 2/3×n
(57/4)=(5/3)n
n=(57/4)×(3/5)=8.55
Total number of 1 2/3 feet long pieces that will be cut=8 pieces
(a) m∠RQS = (1/2)m∠QPR = 37°
(b) m∠QPR = m(arc QR) = 74° . . . . . an arc has the same measure as its central angle
A=1/2bh
b=8+h
A=384
384=1/2(bh)
times 2
768=bh
sub
768=b(8+b)
768=8b+b^2
minus 768 both sides
0=b^2+8b-768
factor
0=(b-24)(b+32)
set to zero
b-24=0
b=24
b+32=0
minus 32
b=-32
false, legnths cannot be negative
b=24
24=8+h
minus 8
16=h
base=24ft
altetude=16ft
