Answer:
A. y ≥ 2x – 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have two possible pieces of information and 2 items to solve for, we know this is a system of equations.
Our first piece of information is that our shorter leg (s) is 2 feet shorter than our longer leg (l). This can be written as s=l-2.
Our second piece of information is that using the Pythagorean theorem that our shorter leg squared plus our longer leg squared is equal to our hypotenuse squared. This can be represented by s^2+l^2=10^2. Now we can solve.
We have already isolated for s in our first equation, so we can substitute l-2 in.
(l-2)^2+l^2=10^2
l-2+l=10
2l-2=10
2l=12
l=6
Now we can substitute in for s in our simpler equation
s=6-2
s=4
We now know that using our knowledge of systems of equations, the side lengths of this right angle triangle are 6 and 4.
If you want to inscribe a polygon inside a circle, you have a formula that doesn't have to use the apothem. The formula is:
A = (nr²/2)sin(360/n)
Since the polygon is a hexagon, it has 6 sides. Thus, n = 6. Knowing the area, we can determine the radius of the circle, r.
166.28 = (6r²/2)sin(360/6)
r = 8 inches
Thus, the radius of the circle is 8 inches.
